The Best Day Of My Life

The Best Day Of My Life
 

Today, when I awoke, I suddenly realized that this is the best day of my life, ever.

There were times when I wondered if I would make it to today; but I did! And because I did I'm going to celebrate!

Today, I'm going to celebrate what an unbelievable life I have had so far:

The accomplishments, the many blessings, the beautiful friendships, and, yes, even the hardships, because they have served to make me stronger.

I will go through this day with my head held high and a happy heart.

I will marvel at GOD's seemingly simple gifts: the morning dew, the sun, the clouds, the trees, the flowers, the birds.

Today, none of these miraculous creations will escape my notice.

Today, I will share my excitement for life with other people. I'll make someone smile.

I'll go out of my way to perform an unexpected act of kindness for someone I don't even know.

Today, I'll give a sincere compliment to someone who seems down.

I'll tell a child how special he is, and I'll tell someone I love just how deeply I care for them and how much they mean to me.

Today is the day I quit worrying about what I don't have and start being grateful for all the wonderful things GOD has already given me.

I'll remember that to worry is just a waste of time because my faith in GOD and his Divine Plan ensures everything will be just fine.

And tonight, before I go to bed, I'll go outside and raise my eyes to the heavens.

I will stand in awe at the beauty of the stars and the moon, and I will praise GOD for these magnificent treasures.

As the day ends and I lay my head down on my pillow, I will thank the Almighty for the best day of my life.

And I will sleep the sleep of a contented child, excited with expectation because I know that tomorrow is going to be the best day of my life, ever!

Email Fraud, supposedly from Maruti Suzuki!!

By -
My sister received a job offer from Maruti Suzuki today. All she had to do to secure the position was to pay a refundable security deposit of Rs. 16,900/-, and she would land up with a job paying anywhere between Rs. 62,000/- per annum to Rs. 20,00,000/- per annum! Seems like a bargain, does it. Thankfully, my sister smelled a rat and forwarded the JD to me for comments. I am pasting the contents of the JD below: MARUTI SUZUKI INDIA LTD (MSIL) Head Office Maruti Suzuki, India Limited Nelson Mandela Road , Vasant Kunj, New Delhi-110070 Board no.46781000 Email:  freshjobs_msil@live.com Tel: +919873128829 (10:00 AM TO 5:30 PM) REF: "MARUTI SUZUKI" DIRECT RECRUITMENTS OFFER.

Microfinance In a Spot Of Trouble

By -

I am keen on Microfinance and try to follow related news / articles as much as I can. Last year I had gone on a research project with some fellow students and stayed in villages for about 10 days. From the discussions we had with villagers and MFI operating in those villages, I got a feeling that though there are many MFIs now operating in India, they do not yet have a clear structure or system to operate with. Villagers further showed a tendency to recycle loans, and often waited for the government to waive off loans. Though life style of some of the villagers seemed to have improved, I did not see Microfinance making major impact on their means of income. If income was stagnant, improved lifestyle could mean only one thing - that loan was being used to meet household expenses, and not as working capital. It was thus no surprise when I came across this article: "Ketaki Gokhale in the WSJ: ' A credit crisis is brewing in Microfinance ' Here in Ramanagaram, a silk-ma

25 Things to Do with Your Family While Stuck at Home

By -
During this period of (almost) global lock down and limited movement, we are all looking for ways to kill time. What we need to keep in mind is that we can use this time productively and not waste it in sleeping or binge watching. Joshua Becker has shared an excellent list of 25 Things to do with your family at his blog Becoming Minimalist. I am sharing the article below. Original article can be found here . I do not really agree with one or two of his points and those have a strike through. My disagreement is mostly personal in nature and readers might or might not agree to it. As with most the world, we’ve been spending a lot more time at home in recent days. It’s important, in these unique times, to redeem the hours and make the most of the moments we have together. There are negative ramifications to the current state of affairs in our world—and you don’t need to see them broadcast in the media, many of you are experiencing them firsthand. But the negative effects of t
