    “Every story has an end. But in life, every ending is just a new beginning. Life goes on – not always the way we had envisioned it would be, but always the ways it’s supposed to be.

    Remember, we usually can’t choose the music life plays for us, but we can choose how we dance to it. Make yours a beautiful memory.

    The lessons I learnt in 2013. Some of you might ask these lessons you must have learnt long back as you have crossed 70 yrs now. :) I think now only I am learning and getting some gyanam. Too late isnit it. Now a days even children learn faster because of the modern technology and also because their parents teach them and buy everything for them. In our days we were not so lucky in those things but lucky in other things. When I got a Camera from my office as a gift for completing 25 yrs I never used to give my children too to use them thinking they might spoil. So I learnt that you can teach and
    give them the chance to learn everything and without using them how will they know how it can be used. After my cataract operation I came to know how bright and beautiful the world is because of which I am able to make jewellery otherwise it was difficult for me to put the thread into the needle. On my 70th birthday learnt that there are so many people to shower love When our elders teach us something in our young age and tell us some quotes we dont give much heed to them. But later only we understand that whatever they teach us is through their experience and which will help us in the long run

    These are the quotes which came true in 2013

    Give to the world the best you have and the best will come back to you
    Try try till you succeed
    Too much of everything is not good, in tamil they say adhigamanaal amrudhamumvisham, so should be in a limit in everything
    Opportunities seldom come , so should make use of it
    People dont love us for the money we have but for the heart we have
    You can learn things in old age too
    In present age everyone leads ahectic life so they dont have time to think of others. Earlier everyone used to phone and keep in touch with everyone but now a days due to hectic life they dont have to phone and send messages through whatsapp. Earlier everyone used to send greeting card for every occasion but now a days whatsapp is there to send greetings. Most of the people are busy with mobile. My sister says you are friendly with so many people so get disappointed if they dont contact or something happens. We should not keep attachment much she says. But its difficult for me to be like that.

    :hello:I agree with you madam. At your age your conviction is awesome. Rightly @messedup is in awe.

    2. Anything within limit is good. Excess nectar too can be poisonous.

    3. What goes from us returns to us perhaps soon or after some time. Whatever grandfather has done it returns to his grandsons. When we observe three successive generations of a family dynasty this would come true.

    4. Life is a circle. Beyond certain age aged become childlike. They begin to learn new and more inquisitive. Attachment to objects and persons is said to be source for many problems. Ok. But in material world we can not become saints or ascetic overnight.

    5. People may not socialise the way it was done in the past but with Facebook all constantly in touch with their friends and more curious to know others status hour after hour. Personal meetings far and few between but they are in touch electronically. That method too can come under attachment category.

    6. Your statement that When elders advised one might have not paid heed but later realise how right those advises. True. When a person becomes dad watch his son, he realises this.
    Thanks and Regards.
    God bless mankind in all ages.
