Stop to smell the roses, as,a rose by any other name will smell as sweet...

Many a gem of purest rays serene,

the dark unfathomed caves of ocean bear;

Many a rose is born to blush unseen

and waste its sweetness in the desert air.

Laughter, the Best Medicine,for all ailments

Tomato Story

A Jobless man applied for the position of "office boy" at Microsoft.

The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the

floor as a test. "You are employed" he said. "Give me your e-mail

address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as date

when you may start.

The man replied "But I don't have a computer, neither an email".

"I'm sorry", said the HR manager. If you don't have an email, that

means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job."

The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with

only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket

and buy a 10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door

to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his

capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home

with $60.

The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go
everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled
everyday. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his
own fleet of delivery vehicles.

5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US .
He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life
insurance.He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan.

When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his email

The man replied,"I don't have an email." The broker answered curiously,

"You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire.

Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e mail?"

The man thought for a while and replied, "Yes, I'd be an office boy

at Microsoft!"

This one's on the Value of Friendship!

Mouse Story

A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer

and his wife open a package. What food might this contain?"

The mouse wondered - he was devastated to discover it was

a mousetrap. Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed

the warning "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap

in the house!" The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head

and said, "Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but

it is of no consequence to me.I cannot be bothered by it."

The mouse turned to the pig and told him, "There is a mousetrap

in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The pig sympathized,

but said, "I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing

I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers."

The mouse turned to the cow and said "There is a mousetrap in

the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The cow said,

"Wow, Mr.Mouse. I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin off my nose."

So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected,

to face the farmer's mousetrap alone.

That very night a sound was heard throughout the house --

likethe sound of a mousetrap catching its prey. The farmer's wife

rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see

it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake

bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital, and she

returned home with a fever.

Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup,

so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's

main ingredient. But his wife's sickness continued, so friends

and neighbours came to sit with her around the clock. To feed

them, the farmer butchered the pig.

The farmer's wife did not get well, she died. So many people

came for her funeral. The farmer had the cow slaughtered to

provide enough meat for all of them.

The mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with

greatsadness.

So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and think

it doesn't concern you, remember -- when one of us is threatened,

we are all at risk.

We are all involved in this journey called life. We must keep

an eyeout for one another and make an extra effort to encourage

one another.

One of the best things to hold onto in this world is a friend.

　　　　　　　The Best of Times is NOW...

The glowing Years - We will get there someday...

A couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things

so they decide to go to the doctor for a checkup. The doctor tells them

that they're physically okay, but they might want to start writing things

down to help them remember.

Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair.

His wife asks, "Where are you going?"
"To the kitchen" he replies.
"Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?"
"Sure."
"Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?"

she asks.
"No, I can remember it."
"Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too.

You'd better write it down because you know you'll forget it."
He says, "I can remember that! You want a bowl of ice cream with

strawberries."
"I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, so you'd

better write it down!" she retorts.
Irritated, he says, "I don't need to write it down,I can remember it!

Leave me alone! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream -

I got it, for goodness sake!"

Then he grumbles into the kitchen.

After about 20 minutes the old man returns from the kitchen and

hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs.

She stares at the plate for a moment and says - "Where's my toast?

A few days later the doctor saw Morris walking down the street

with a gorgeous young woman on his arm.

A couple of days later the doctor spoke to Morris and said,

"You're really doing great, aren't you?"

Morris replied, "Just doing what you said, Doc. 'Get a hot mamma

and be cheerful.'"

The doctor said, "I didn't say that at all. What I did say was

'You've got a heart murmur - Be careful."
