Life is too..short!
Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Love the ones who don't just because you can. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Kiss slowly. Forgive quickly. God never said life would be easy. He just promised it would be worth it.
The Journey
A very nice story, we can learn a lot from this especially sa mga workaholic.
A long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered.
Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible.
Came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying. Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself."
The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health , time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.
One day when we look back, we will realize that we don't really need that much, but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed.
Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition . Life is definitely not about work! Work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life. Life is a balance of Work and Play, Family and Personal time. You have to decide how you want to balance your Life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of Life, the whole aim of human existence.
So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is fragile, Life is short. Do not take Life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy Life!
Watch your thoughts ; they become words.
Watch your words ; they become actions.
Watch your actions ; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character .
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny

The 3rd Word Ending in -gry
I've received countless e-mails regarding a puzzle that asks what the third word in English is that ends in "-gry."
Well, here's the answer:
LANGUAGE
How Can That Be!?
What am I talking about? "Language" doesn't end in "-gry!" Ah... but you must not have been paying attention to the puzzle if you don't understand how "language" is the answer!
The puzzle is written like so:
Angry and hungry are two words that end in -gry.
There are three common words in the English language.
What is the third word? Everyone knows what it means, and if you've listened carefully, I've already provided the answer.
If you read the question carefully, you'll understand what it's actually asking you, and why "language" is the answer!
But Language Doesn't End in -gry!
Think of the question as if it were written like this:
There are three common words in:
What is the third word?
Well, now they're asking "what is the third word in the phrase 'The English Language.'" And, of course, it's "language!"
It's similar to the joke:
"Supercalifragalisticexpealidocious" is a very long word.
How do you spell it?
You spell 'it' I T!
But Aren't There Other Words Ending in -gry?
There are actually more words in the English language that end in "-gry."
Here's a list:
• aggry
Applied to a kind of variegated glass beads of ancient manufacture
• ahungry
A Shakespearean variant of "hungry"
• angry
Feeling or showing anger; incensed or enraged
• hungry
Experiencing a desire or need for food.
• puggry
A light scarf wound around a hat or helmet to protect the head from the sun [in India]

Nine words women use...
1.)
Fine : This is the word women use to end an argument when they are
right and you need to shut up.
2.)
Five Minutes : If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour.
Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more
minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
3.)
Nothing : This is the calm before the storm. This means something,
and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing
usually end in fine.
4.)
Go Ahead : This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
5.)
Loud Sigh : This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement
often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an
idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing
with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)
6.)
That's Okay : This is one of the most dangerous statements a wom a n
can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard
before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
7.)
Thanks : A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say
you're welcome.
8.)
Whatever : Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!
9.)
Don't worry about it, I got it : Another dangerous statement, meaning
this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but
is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's
wrong?' For the woman's response refer to #3.Then you RUN!
Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can
avoid if they remember the terminology.
Send this to all the women you know to give them a good laugh,
cause they know it's true.
