There was a farmer who sold a pound of butter to the baker. One day the

baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting a pound and he

found that he was not. This angered him and he took the farmer to court.

The judge asked the farmer if he was using any measure. The farmer replied,

amour Honor, I am primitive. I don't have a proper measure, but I do have a

scale." The judge asked, "Then how do you weigh the butter?" The farmer

replied "Your Honor, long before the baker started buying butter from me, I

have been buying a pound loaf of bread from him. Every day when the baker

brings the bread, I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in

butter. If anyone is to be blamed, it is the baker."

What is the moral of the story? We get back in life what we give to others.

Whenever you take an action, ask yourself this question: Am I giving fair

value for the wages or money I hope to make?

Honesty and dishonesty become a habit. Some people practice dishonesty and

can lie with a straight face. Others lie so much that they don't even know

what the truth is anymore. But who are they deceiving? Themselves--- more

than anyone else.

Honesty can be put across gently. Some people take pride in being brutally

honest. It seems they are getting a bigger kick out of the brutality than

the honesty. Choice of words and tact are important.

Before you think of saying an unkind word

Think of someone who can't speak

Before you complain about the taste of your food

Think of someone who has nothing to eat

Before you complain about your husband or wife

Think of someone who's crying out to God for a companion


13/85

Today before you complain about life

Think of someone who went too early to heaven

Before you complain about your children

Think of someone who desires children but they're barren

Before you argue about your dirty house; someone didn't clean or sweep

Think of the people who are living in the streets

Before whining about the distance you drive

Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet

And when you are tired and complain about your jobThink of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another

Remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker

And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down

Put a smile on your face and thank God you're alive and still around

Life is a gift

Live it...Enjoy it...

Celebrate it...

And fulfill it.

Its almost midnight. Jim is lying in his bed. Hes not trying to sleep. Who wants to miss that

precious moment in his life when hes turning 18? He too is all willing to get that license and

hear the roaring engines firing at 90 miles an hour as he rides his first car on the freeway.

Hes sure Sarah will sit beside him clinging to him tightly before they have their first kiss andas of now hes clutching his cell phone tightly hoping it to ring and beep as his peers call him

in a few seconds.

Jim isnt any different from you and me. Hes just like all of us and questions like why do we

live? or why are we born? dont haunt him. He considers them weird and unanswerable

just like you and me. They are for him unimportant. Though he doesnt think about them do

you know what hes doing as hes lying there? Hes thinking abouthow much freedom is that

stroke of midnight going to give him. Hes thinking about his future and the new experiences

it will get him.

We all come in this world without much of a choice. We cant choose our parents, we cant


14/85

choose our appearances and neither do we have a choice of our innate qualities or

tendencies whether good or bad. But theres one more fact. We dont have a choice to die

either. Most of us are too afraid of committing suicide. In other words we just dont have the

guts. So here we are. Left with decades and sometimes a century of time with not much of

choice and so we are forced. Forced to live.

In these decades of forced vacation called life, we start finding ways to spend it. Some

people use their qualities and tendencies. Some develop them from others. We label these

ways in several forms. Some call it love, some profession, some passion and somedont

know what!. In short we all have to find something to do because ultimately we have no

choice.

Long journeys have to have halts and breaks. So we go away from our passions and have

experiences. People dont get addicted to alcohol or drugs. They are not addicted to sex.

They get addicted to experiences of them. There are so many experiences here. Everyone isaddicted to a different experience. This addiction to experiences is what we call life. And its

so strong to get rid off that by the time we can only form a list of these experiences, our

time here is over! And thats life!

Whether having these experiences is good or bad, or what leads to heaven or hell isnt for us

to decide. If god exists, he will take care of it. Make justice. Find the best way to spend your

vacation here. Thats all. Dont ever cry about yesterday. Be happy because you have today.

You may not have a tomorrow to think about it. Some people die in a day, some in weeks.

Some old, some young and no one knows when the time is over.

*A Story to live by*

There was a blind girl who hated herself

because she was blind. She

hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend.

He was always there for her.

She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see

the world,

I will marry you.'

One day,

someone donated a pair of eyes to her.

When the bandages came off,

she was able to see everything,

including her boyfriend.

He asked her,

'Now that you can see the world,

will you marry me ?'

The girl looked at her boyfriend and


16/85

saw that he was blind.

The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her.

She hadn't expected that.

The thought of looking at them the rest

of her life led her to refuse to marry him.

Her boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote

a note to her

saying: 'Take good care of your eyes,

my dear,

for before they were yours, they were mine.'

*This is

how the human brain often works when our

status changes*.Only a very few remember what life was like

before, and who

was always by their side in the most painful

situations.

*Life Is a

Gift*

Today

someone who can't

speak.

too early on this earth.

My mom only had one eye. I hated her... She was such an embarrassment. My mom ran a

small shop at a flea market. She collected little weeds and such to sell... Anything for the

money we needed she was such an embarrassment. There was this one day during

elementary school.

I remember that it was field day, and my mom came. I was so embarrassed.

How could she do this to me? I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at

school..."Your mom only has one eye?!" and they taunted me.

I wished that my mom would just disappear from this world so I said to my mom, "Mom,

why don't you have the other eye?! You're only going to make me a laughingstock. Why

don't you just die?" My mom did not respond. I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same

time, it felt good to think that I had said what I'd wanted to say all this time.

Maybe it was because my mom hadn't punished me, but I didn't think that I had hurt herfeelings very badly.

That night...I woke up, and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. My mom was crying

there, so quietly, as if she was afraid that she might wake me. I took a look at her, and

then turned away.

Because of the thing I had said to her earlier, there was something pinching at me in the

corner of my heart. Even so, I hated my mother who was crying out of her one eye. So I

told myself that I would grow up and become successful, because I hated my one-eyed

mom and our desperate poverty.

Then I studied really hard. I left my mother and came to Seoul and studied, and got

accepted in the Seoul University with all the confidence I had. Then, I got married. I bought

a house of my own. Then I had kids, too. Now I'm living happily as a successful man. I like

it here because it's a place that doesn't remind me of my mom.

This happiness was getting bigger and bigger, when someone unexpected came to see me

"What?! Who's this?!" ...It was my mother...Still with her one eye. It felt as if the whole

sky was falling apart on me. My little girl ran away, scared of my mom's eye.

And I asked her, "Who are you? I don't know you!!!" as if I tried to make that real. I

screamed at her "How dare you come to my house and scare my daughter! GET OUT OF

HERE! NOW!!!" And to this, my mother quietly answered, "oh, I'm so sorry. I may have

gotten the wrong address," and she disappeared. Thank good ness... She doesn't recognize

me. I was quite relieved. I told myself that I wasn't going to care, or think about this for

the rest of my life.

Then a wave of relief came upon me...one day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to

my house. I lied to my wife saying that I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, Iwent down to the old shack, that I used to call a house...just out of curiosity there, I found


19/85

my mother fallen on the cold ground. But I did not shed a single tear. She had a piece of

paper in her hand.... It was a letter to me.

She wrote:

My son...

I think my life has been long enough now. And... I won't visit Seoul anymore... But would it

ed you to come visit me once in a while? I miss you so much.be too much to ask if I want

And I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I decided not to go to

the school.... For you... I'm sorry that I only have one eye, and I was an embarrassment for

you.

see, when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother,You

I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye... So I gave you mine...Ice, with thatwas so proud of my son that was seeing a whole new world for me, in my pla

eye. I was never upset at you for anything you did. The couple times that you were angry

with me.

I thought to myself, 'it's because he loves me.' I miss the times when you were still young

around me

n the world to me.I miss you so much. I love you. You mea

My world shattered!!!

Then I cried for the person who

lived for me... My Mother

Has anyone ever told you" I need You?"

I would like to hear your answer if I were beside you. I really want to hear the word "yes"

from you.

Because then, you're needed by someone. For now at least only one or two people may

need you.

But, later, the whole community will need you.

Society will then say, " we need you"..................Do you want others to need you??

To be needed you don't necessarily have to be a social worker. It's simple than you think,


20/85

because in this world people claim " nothing is impossible"

If that is so, why can't you make your presence felt to society. You have to first believe in

yourself.

ep...Do it step by st

Start from one person closest to you in life.

Shall I tell you who's your best friend..who you're believing in and who you lovemore than

any one else in the world?

It's you

yes, its you. no one else...................

You may argue with me. "no , it's my loved one, my parents, my husband, my wife , so and

so forth.

But if you look at your inner self, it will tell you, whom you care for, whom you believe in,

whom you love more than any one in the world.

As I said earlier, you can first serve the one closest to you, thats you.

That means you have to take good care of yourself first, including your health, your abilities,

your creativity, your career and everything else. Do something to improve your self. If you

don't have much educational qualification, gear up to be qualified.

The importance of serving yourself means that. If you don't treat your self properly, you

don't treat others. If you don't take good care of your self, you can never care for another

person.If you're not educated, you cant educate others.That's why I said you have to serve

yourself first.

Its the most beautiful compensation process of life that no man can sincerely try to help

another without helping himself.

Who's next?

Aha, then comes your most loved so and so in your life.

Your service

Serving and helping others will definitely give comfort to your mind. You do like to see the

satisfaction in them which comes out in form of a smile between their lips. Don't you like to

see the difference in you, your manners, your inner peace by helping others.

There are numerous ways to serve others. You can give a cheerful smile which can heal a


21/85

person physically. You can guide a person from wrong path to the correct path, by teaching

good manners, disciplines, rules and regulations of life and so on. Your verbal assistant may

be very important at times when someone needs a guidance or encouragement.

They can be in need of your precious time and energy as well. To be a real friend, as the

saying goes " A friend in need is a friend indeed"

Leave a footprint

Leave a footprint in the sands of time. Let people talk about ur service even after your

death.

"what we have done for ourselves alone dies with us, what we have done for others and the

world remains and is immoral"

Make a purpose in life to do some service to others for their well-being.

Servicing others is one of your responsibilities. Being grateful for any help you offer is the

responsibility of the recipient. Perhaps the person to whom you rendered help may not be

grateful to you.

"Do everything with a mind that lets go. Don't expect praise or reward"

If you expect gratitude for your help, you may be discouraged to continue your admirable

work of helping others. "Serving others not expecting a favor in return is really a noble

quality of a man"

You cant be selfish

You have to eliminate the negative factor of being selfish in order to service others. If you're

selfish , your mind doesn't let you be generous.To be fair and final commandment for those

who would be useful and helpful to others.

So start now to do at least a little favor to another person creating goodwill and lifting his

spirits.

"Sow good service, sweet remembrances will grown from then"

1.

Do Not Interfere In Others' Business Unless Asked.


22/85

Most of us create our own problems by interfering too often in

others' affairs. We do so because somehow we have convinced

ourselves that our way is the best way, our logic is the perfect

logic and those who do not conform to our thinking must be

criticized and steered to the right direction, our direction. This

thinking denies the existence of individuality and consequently

the existence of God.. God has created each one of us in a unique

way. No two human beings can think or act in exactly the same

way. All men or women act the way they do because God within

them prompts them that way. Mind your own business and you

will keep your peace.

2. Forgive And Forget.

This is the most powerful aid to peace of mind. We often developill feelings inside our heart for the person who insults us or harms

us. We nurture grievances. This in turn results in loss of sleep,

development of stomach ulcers, and high blood pressure. This

insult or injury was done once, but nourishing of grievance goes

on forever by constantly remembering it. Get over this bad habit.

Life is too short to waste in such trifles. Forgive, Forget, and

march on. Love flourishes in giving and forgiving.

3. Do Not Crave For Recognition.

This world is full of selfish people. They seldom praise anybody

without selfish motives. They may praise you today because you

are in power, but no sooner than you are powerless, they will

forget your achievement and will start finding faults in you. Why

do you wish to kill yourself in striving for their recognition? Their

recognition is not worth the aggravation. Do your duties ethically

and sincerely.

4. Do Not Be Jealous.

We all have experienced how jealousy can disturb our peace of

mind. You know that you work harder than your colleagues in the

office, but sometimes they get promotions; you do not. You

started a business several years ago, but you are not as successful

as your neighbor whose business is only one year old. There are

several examples like these in everyday life. Should you be

jealous? No. Remember everybody's life is shaped by his/her

destiny, which has now become his/her reality. If you aredestined to be rich, nothing in the world can stop you. If you are


23/85

not so destined, no one can help you either. Nothing will be

gained by blaming others for your misfortune. Jealousy will not

get you anywhere; it will only take away your peace of mind.

5. Change Yourself According To The Environment.

If you try to change the environment single-handedly, the chances

are you will fail. Instead, change yourself to suit your

environment. As you do this, even the environment, which has

been unfriendly to you, will mysteriously change and seem

congenial and harmonious.

6. Endure What Cannot Be Cured.

This is the best way to turn a disadvantage into an advantage.Every day we face numerous inconveniences, ailments, irritations,

and accidents that are beyond our control. If we cannot control

them or change them, we must learn to put up with these things.

We must learn to endure them cheerfully. Believe in yourself and

you will gain in terms of patience, inner strength and will power.

7. Do Not Bite Off More Than You Can Chew.

This maxim needs to be remembered constantly. We often tend

to take more responsibilities than we are capable of carrying out.

This is done to satisfy our ego. Know your limitations. . Why take

on additional loads that may create more worries? You cannot

gain peace of mind by expanding your external activities. Reduce

your material engagements and spend time in prayer,

introspection and meditation. This will reduce those thoughts in

your mind that make you restless. Uncluttered mind will produce

greater peace of mind.

8. Meditate Regularly.

Meditation calms the mind and gets rid of disturbing thoughts.

This is the highest state of peace of mind. Try and experience it

yourself. If you meditate earnestly for half an hour everyday, your

mind will tend to become peaceful during the remaining twenty-

three and half-hours. Your mind will not be easily disturbed as it

was before. You would benefit by gradually increasing the period

of daily meditation. You may think that this will interfere with

your daily work. On the contrary, this will increase your efficiency

and you will be able to produce better results in less time.


24/85

9. Never Leave The Mind Vacant.

An empty mind is the devil's workshop. All evil actions start in the

vacant mind. Keep your mind occupied in something positive,

something worthwhile. Actively follow a hobby. Do something

that holds your interest. You must decide what you value more:

money or peace of mind. Your hobby, like social work or religious

work, may not always earn you more money, but you will have a

sense of fulfillment and achievement. Even when you are resting

physically, occupy yourself in healthy reading or mental chanting

of God's name.

10. Do Not Procrastinate And Never Regret.

Do not waste time in protracted wondering " Should I orshouldn't I?" Days, weeks, months, and years may be wasted in

that futile mental debating. You can never plan enough because

you can never anticipate all future happenings. Value your time

and do the things that need to be done. It does not matter if you

fail the first time. You can learn from your mistakes and succeed

the next time. Sitting back and worrying will lead to nothing.

Learn from your mistakes, but do not brood over the past. DO

NOT REGRET. Whatever happened was destined to happen only

that way. Why cry over spilt milk?

SPECIAL GROCERY LIST : Is God There ???

Louise Redden, a poorly dressed lady with a look

of defeat on her face, walked into a grocery store.

She approached the owner of the store in a most

humble manner and softly explained that her husband

was very ill and unable to work, they had seven children

and they needed food.

John Longhouse, the grocer, scoffed at her and requested


25/85

that she leave his store at once.

Visualizing the family needs, she said: 'Please, sir! I

will bring you the money just as soon as I can.'

Standing beside the counter was a customer who overheard

the conversation between the two. The customer walked

forward and told the grocer that he would stand good for

whatever she needed for her family. The grocer said in a

very reluctant voice, 'Do you have a grocery list?'

Louise replied, 'Yes sir.' 'O.K' he said, 'put your grocery list on

the scales and whatever your grocery list weighs, I will give

you that amount in groceries.'

Louise hesitated a moment with a bowed head, then she reached

into her purse and took out a piece of paper and scribbled

something on it. She then laid the piece of paper on the scale

carefully with her head still bowed.

The eyes of the grocer and the customer showed amazement

when the scales went down and stayed down.

The grocer, staring at the scales, turned slowly to the customer

and said begrudgingly, 'I can't believe it.'

The customer smiled and the grocer started putting the

groceries on the other side of the scales. The scale did not

balance so he continued to put more and more groceries

on them until the scales would hold no more.

The grocer stood there in utter disgust. Finally, he grabbed

the piece of paper from the scales and looked at it with greater amazement.

It was not a grocery list, it was a prayer, which said:

'Dear Lord, you know my needs and I am leaving this in

your hands.'

The grocer gave her the groceries that he had

gathered and stood in stunned silence.

Louise thanked him and left the store. The other customer

handed a fifty-dollar bill to the grocer and said; 'It wasworth every penny of it. Only God Knows how much a

prayer weighs.'

Just stop right now, and say a prayer of thanks for your

own good fortune.

So dear heart, trust God to heal the sick, provide food for

the hungry, clothes and shelter for those that don't have

as we do.

May you always walk with Angels

God Bless!

He almost didn't see the old lady stranded on the side of the road, but even in the dim

light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and

got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached her.

Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last

hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn't look safe. He looked poor and hungry.

He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she

felt. It was that chill only fear can put in you.

He said, "I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in the car where it's warm? By

the way, my name is Bryan Anderson."

Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled

under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon

he was able to change the tire. But, he had to get dirty, and his hands hurt.

As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to

him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She

couldn't thank him enough for coming to her aid.

Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any

amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that

could have happened had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid.

This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were

plenty who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it

never occurred to him to act any other way.

He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who

needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added,

"And think of me."

He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day,

mouthful of this curd rice? Just for Dad's sake dear.

Sindu softened a bit & wiped her tears with the back of her hands. 'Ok, Dad.. I will eat -

not just a few mouthfuls, but the whole lot of this.

But, you should...' Sindu hesitated. 'Dad, if I eat this entire curd rice, will you give me

whatever I ask for?'

'Promise'. I covered the pink soft hand extended by my daughter with mine, & clinched

the deal. Now I became a bit anxious.

'Sindu, dear, you shouldn't insist on getting a computer or any such expensive items. Dad

does not have that kind of money right now. Ok?'

'No, Dad. I do not want anything expensive'. Slowly & painfully, she finished eating the

whole quantity. I was silently angry with my wife & my mother for forcing my child to eat

something that she detested.

After the ordeal was through, Sindu came to me with her eyes wide with expectation. All

our attention was on her.

'Dad, I want to have my head shaved off, this Sunday!' was her demand.

'Atrocious!' shouted my wife, 'A girl child having her head shaved off?

Impossible!' 'Never in our family!' My mother rasped. 'She has been watching too much of

TV. Our culture is getting totally spoiled with this TV programs!'

'Sindu, darling, why don't you ask for something else? Well be sad seeing you with a

clean-shaven head.' 'Please, Sindu, why don't you try to understand our feelings?' I tried

to plead with her.

'Dad, you saw how difficult it was for me to eat that Curd Rice'. Sindu was in tears. '& you

promised to grant me whatever I ask for.

Now, you are going back on your words. Was it not you who told me the story of King

Harishchandra, its moral that we should honor our promises no matter what?'

It was time for me to call the shots. 'Our promise must be kept.' 'Are you out of your

mind?' chorused my mother & wife. 'No. If we go back on our promises, she will never

learn to honour her own. Sindu, your wish will be fulfilled.'

With her head clean-shaven, Sindu had a round-face & her eyes looked big & beautiful.

On Monday morning, I dropped her at her school. It was a sight to watch my hairless Sindu

walking towards her classroom. She turned around & waved.

I waved back with a smile. Just then, a boy alighted from a car & shouted, 'Sinduja, please

wait for me!'

What struck me was the hairless head of that boy. 'May be, that is the in-stuff', I thought.


32/85

'Sir, your daughter Sinduja is great indeed!' Without introducing herself, a lady got out of

the car, & continued, 'that boy who is walking along with your daughter is my son Harish.

He is suffering from... leukemia'.

She paused to muffle her sobs. 'Harish could not attend the school for the whole of the

last month. He lost all his hair due to the side effects of the chemotherapy. He refused to

come back to school fearing the unintentional but cruel teasing of the schoolmates.

Sinduja visited him last week & promised him that she will take care of the teasing issue.

But, I never imagined she would sacrifice her lovely hair for the sake of my son!

Sir, you & your wife are blessed to have such a noble soul as your daughter..'

I stood transfixed & then, I wept. 'My little Angel, you are teaching me how selfless real

love is!'

The happiest peopleare not those who live on their own termsbut are those who

change their terms for the ones whom they love

One day a young man was standing in the middle of

the town proclaiming that he had the most beautiful heart

in the whole valley.

A large crowd gathered and they all admired his heart for

it was perfect. There was not a mark or a flaw in it.

Yes, they all agreed it truly was the most beautiful heart

they had ever seen. The young man was very proud and

boasted more loudly about his beautiful heart. Suddenly,

an old man appeared at the front of the crowd and said,

"Why your heart is not nearly as beautiful as mine.

" The crowd and the young man looked at the old man's

heart. It was beating strongly, but full of scars, it had places

where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in,

but they didn't fit quite right and there were several jagged edges.

In fact, in some places there were deep gouges where whole

pieces were missing.

The people stared -- how can he say his heart is more

beautiful, they thought? The young man looked at the old

man's heart and saw its state and laughed. "You must be

joking," he said. "Compare your heart with mine, mine is

perfect and yours is a mess of scars and tears."

"Yes," said the old man, "yours is perfect looking but I would

never trade with you. You see, every scar represents a

person to whom I have given my love - I tear out a piece

of my heart and give it to them, and often they give me a

piece of their heart which fits into the empty place in my


34/85

heart, but because the pieces aren't exact, I have some

rough edges, which I cherish, because they remind me

of the love we shared. Sometimes I have given pieces of

my heart away, and the other person hasn't returned a

piece of his heart to me.

These are the empty gouges -- giving love is taking a chance.

Although these gouges are painful, they stay open, reminding

me of the love I have for these people too, and I hope

someday they may return and fill the space I have waiting.

So now do you see what true beauty is?"

The young man stood silently with tears running down his

cheeks. He walked up to the old man, reached into his perfect

young and beautiful heart, and ripped a piece out.

He offered it to the old man with trembling hands. The old man

took his offering, placed it in his heart and then took a piece

from his old scarred heart and placed it in the wound in the

young man's heart. It fit,

But not perfectly, as there were some jagged edges. The young

man looked at his heart, not perfect anymore but more beautiful

than ever, since love from the old man's heart flowed into his.

They embraced and walked away side by side.

Origins of the Numerals

Today's numbers, also called Hindu-Arabic numbers,

are a combination of just 10 symbols or digits:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 0. These digits were

introduced in Europe within the XII century by

Leonardo Pisano (aka Fibonacci), an Italian mathematician.

L. Pisano was educated in North Africa, where helearned and later carried to Italy the now popular

Hindu-Arabic numerals.

Hindu numeral system is a pure place-value system,

that is why you need a zero. Only the Hindus, within

the context of Ind-European civilizations, have

consistently used a zero. The Arabs, however,

played an essential part in the dissemination of

this numeral system.

Numerals, a time travel from India to Europe

The discovery of zero and the place-value systemwere inventions unique to the Indian civilization.

As the Brahmi notation of the first 9 whole numbers...

Before adopting the Hindu-Arabic numeral system,

people used the Roman figures instead, which actually

are a legacy of the Etruscan period. The Roman

numeration is based on a biquinary (5) system.

To write numbers the Romans used an additive

system: V + I + I = VII (7) or C + X + X + I (121),

and also a substractive system: IX (I before X = 9),XCIV (X before C = 90 and I before V = 4, 90 + 4 = 94).

Latin numerals were used for reckoning until late XVI century!

The graphical origin of the Roman numbers

Other original systems of numeration

Other original systems of numeration were being

used in the past. The "Notae Elegantissimae" shown

below allow to write numbers from 1 to 9999.They are useful as a mnemotechnic aid, e.g.

the symbol K may mean 1414 (the first 4 figures of the square root of 2).

Chinese and Japanese contributions

The Ba-Gua (pron. pah-kwah) trigrams and the

Genji-Koh patterns, antique Chinese and Japanese

symbols, are strangely enough related to mathematics

and electronics. If all the entire lines of the trigrams

(___) are replaced with the digit 1 and the broken

lines (_ _) with the digit 0, each Ba Gua trigram

will represent then a binary number from 0 to 7,

and each number is laid in front of its complementary (07, 16, 25, etc...).

Write "a", "b", "c", "d" and "e" under the five small

red sticks of each Genji-Koh pattern. By doing so,

you will have the 52 manners to CONNECT 5 variables

in boolean algebraics. The binded sticks form a

"conjunction" (AND, .), and the isolated sticks or

groups of sticks form a "disjunction" (OR, +).

The pattern at the top left represents: [("a" and "d")

or ("b" and "e") or "c"]

After listening to the executive's woes, the old man said,

"I believe I can help you."

He asked the man his name, wrote out a check, and pushed

Lawyers should never ask a Mississippi grandma a question if they aren't prepared for the

answer.

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness, a

grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand. He approached her and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do

you know me?'

She responded, 'Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were aboy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife,

and you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a big

shot when you haven't the brains to realize you'll never amount to anything more than a

two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you.'

The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across the room and

asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense attorney?'

She again replied, ' Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, too. He's

lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with

anyone, and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he

cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know

him.'

The defense attorney nearly died.

The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice, said, 'If

either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the electric chair.'

Have you ever wondered about the innocence of childhood?

How beautiful things were when we were kids.

Looking at world with hope, optimism and curiosity and not with cynicism.

Making friends easily.

Simplifying things.

Life was not at all complicated.

So often, I have met people reminiscing about that golden era amidst the quagmire of adult

life.

Well, I think its never too late actually.

We cant replicate those things.

We cant go back to that period.

But yes, we can always learn from that stage of life.

We can always revisit that kindergarten atmosphere.

We can still be simple, take great pleasures in small things of life, making friends easily.

We can still trust people.

The choice is ours.

Life is a thing to be lived fully.

As it has been said "There are only two ways to live your life.

One is as though nothing is a miracle.

The other is as though everything is a miracle."

So one should always strive to fulfill ones capabilities.

Lets enjoy this poem and start believing your capabilities

Who I am is unimportant, dont look to heavens above

See what has been and what could be with just a little love

A world thats full of anger and hate, will eat itself away

A world which is loved, with a people that care, will see another day

My time with you is over and very soon Ill leaveYou all must carry on this task, spread love and self-belief

A Baby's Cry And A New Father's Tears...baby's cry and new father's tears love story with sad

ending that is sure to make you cry

Tsuki was in severe pain. She had just been wounded in battle 30 minutes before. To makematters worse, she was also pregnant with her husband Hoshi's baby. She screamed out in

pain and Hoshi rushed to her side saying, '' Love, what's wrong?!'' The doctor and nurses

came in, asking Hoshi to wait outside the tent they were staying in. To Hoshi's

dissapointment, this tent was sound-proof, and he wouldn't be able to hear his baby's first

cry. Most of all, he wanted to be by his beloved wife's side when she gave birth her very first

time. Sound proof or not, the tent door was cracked and he could hear Tsuki's crys of pain

and her sobs. Then, all the sudden, all went silent...except for a baby's first cry. The doctor

came out saying, '' Mr. Mizuki?'' ''Yes? What's wrong? I can't hear Tsuki anymore, is she

okay?!'' Hoshi asked, fear and worry shining true in his voice. ''I'm so sorry, sir. Mrs.

Mizuki...Well, come with me,'' he said, obviously very upset. This worried Hoshi more than

before. Hoshi walked into the tent and saw Tsuki on a mat on the floor, covered up to her

stomach, with their baby in her arms. She was still crying, but she had an oxygen mask on

her face, muffleing her sobs, thus why it had gotten quiet a few moments before. Hoshi

walked over to her and knelt by her side saying,'' She's beautiful, baby, but are you okay,

love?'' She shook her head...No. The doctor came to his side, and said,'' Her wound to her

chest cannot be repaired. She...'' He couldn't say the rest. This man had taken care of Tsuki

all her life, and even gave Hoshi his blessings when they got mairried. Now, he had delivered

her baby, and had to tell himself and Hoshi that she had only a few minutes to live. Hoshi

knew what was about to be said, and couldn't help but break down and cry... Tsuki knewnow what was wrong, for her beloved husband never cried unless something severely bad

was happening, or has happened. She took the oxygen mask off her face, kissed her little

baby's head, and said,'' My love...As my very last wish...Please, name her Tsukuyomi, after

myself, so she may be blessed with my strength and beauty.'' '' My love, please don't say

that, you're not going to die!'' Hoshi yelled, huging her carefully while still in tears. He was

too late...The life was gone from her eyes, and she lay limp on her mat with her hand still

holding Tsukuyomi to her chest. Tsukuyomi Mizuki...was dead.

Hoshi couldn't help but cry harder now. His beloved wife was gone, and now he had to care

for their only child on his own. ''Can I do this on my own? Can I raise her right? What should I

do? How can I go on without Tsuki?'' So many questions were going through his mind rightthen, that he'd forgotten about Tsukuyomi in his wife's arms. Picking her up, he said,'' Your


55/85

mother died for you, my little angel. Wear her name with pride, for it is her last wish for you

to be named after her, so that you may be blessed with her beauty...and strength.'' Kneeling

down, holding Tsukuyomi close to him, carefully, he wept in sorrow for his now dead wife.

Tsukuyomi had been only 25. Hoshiyomi was 30 at this time...But, years later:

''Daddy! I'm okay! Please don't worry, alright?'' said Tsukuyomi after she'd fallen off her very

first bike at the age of 9. She got up and smiled, saying,''I'm not as weak as you thaught I

was, am I, daddy? After all, I was blessed with mother's name right?'' Hoshiyomi laughed,

and replied,'' Yes, my angel, you're stronger than I thaught you were, just like your mother

was.''

Years later, when Tsukuyomi was 25 herself, she had a child named Toki Mizuki. She, herself,

had not gone into battle as her mother did, but her husband, sadly, had. He was never heard

from again...Saddness was a part of her life, now, as well, just like her father. Her life was

never the same....

We were not created to be eaten by anxiety, but to walk erect,

free, unafraid in a world where there is work to do,

truth to seek, love to give and win.

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by

every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.

You must do the thing which you think you cannot do.

Adversity is another way to measure the greatness of individuals.

To be nobody but yourself, in a world which is doing its best,

night and day, to make you everybody else,

means to fight the hardest battle that any human being

can fight...and never stop fighting.

Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has many,

not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude

from achieving his goal;

Nothing on earth

can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.

I was walking around in a Big Bazar store making shopping, when I saw a Cashier talking to

a boy couldn't have been more than 5 or 6 years old.

The Cashier said, 'I'm sorry, but you don't have enough money to buy this doll. Then the

little boy turned to me and asked: ''Uncle, are you sure I don't have enough money?''

I counted his cash and replied: ''You know that you don't have enough money to buy the

doll , my dear.'' The little boy was still holding the doll in his hand.

Finally, I walked toward him and I asked him who he wished to give this doll to. 'It's the

doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much. I wanted to Gift her for her BIRTHDAY.

I have to give the doll to my mummy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes

there.' His eyes were so sad while saying this. 'My Sister has gone to be with God . Daddysays that Mummy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the

doll with her to give it to my sister.''

My heart nearly stopped. The little boy looked up at me and said: 'I told daddy to tell

mummy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall.' Then he showed

me a very nice photo of him where he was laughing. He then told me 'I want mummy to

take my picture with her so my sister won't forget me.' 'I love my mummy and I wish she

doesn't have to leave me, but daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister.'

Then he looked again at the doll with sad eyes, very quietly.

I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy. 'Suppose we check again, just in case

you do have enough money for the doll?'' 'OK' he said, 'I hope I do have enough.' I added

some of my money to his without him seeing and we started to count it. There was

enough for the doll and even some spare money.


65/85

The little boy said: 'Thank you God for giving me enough money!' Then he looked at me

and added, 'I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough

money to buy this doll, so that mummy could give It to my sister. He heard me!'' 'I also

wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mummy, but I didn't dare to ask

God for too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose. My mommy

loves white roses.'

I finished my shopping in a totally different state from when I started. I couldn't get the

little boy out of my mind. Then I remembered a local news paper article two days ago,

which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a

little girl. The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state.

The family had to decide whether to pull the plug on the life-sustaining machine, because

the young woman would not be able to recover from the coma. Was this the family of the

little boy?

Two days after this encounter with the little boy, I read in the newspaper that the young

woman had passed away. I couldn't stop myself as I bought a bunch of white roses and I

went to the funeral home where the body of the young woman was exposed for people to

see and make last wishes before her burial. She was there, in her coffin, holding a

beautiful white rose in her hand with the photo of the little boy and the doll placed over

her chest. I left the place, teary-eyed, feeling that my life had been changed forever.

The love that the little boy had for his mother and his sister is still, to this day, hard to

imagine. And in a fraction of a second, a drunk driver had taken all this away from him.
