"The
wheel of life moves on. It is overwhelmed by decrepitude and grief, and it has
diseases and calamities for its progeny. That wheel relates in time and place.
Day and night are the rotations of that wheel. It is characterised by production
and destruction going on ceaselessly. When one’s time comes, one cannot escape.
There is none dear or hateful to time. Youth, beauty, life, possessions, health
and the companionship of friends, all are unstable." -The Mahabharata, Santi Parva

Man of The Match
Few things
excite men as much as sports. It’s isn’t just a game, it becomes a passion,
where the pursuit of a momentary victory exceeds the routine daily tasks.
Anyone can play the game, but not anyone can win.The winning edge can often
depend on one man who stands, while everything else falls apart. He overcomes
pressure and his fears within to lift his team to victory and become the “Man
of the Match”.
Joke : An elderly
couple had memory problems and so went to see the doctor. After examining them
boththe doctor said, "Well, the memory loss is caused by old age. One way
to manage your memory
problems
is to write down everything. That way you won't forget things."
The
couple thanked him and returned home.
That
evening while they were watching TV the woman asked her husband to bring her
some
ice-cream
from the kitchen.The man stood up and walked towards the kitchen. His wife
said, "Hey, write it down like the doctor said."
He
replied, "What? Write down ice-cream? I won't forget that." Then he
went into the kitchen.
Ten
minutes later he returned from the kitchen with a plate of fried eggs and
toast.
The
woman took one look at the plate and said, "I told you to write it down.
Now you've made me
the
wrong thing. I asked for a cheese sandwich!"
