Hello out there, i have been very busy all week though i operated from my desk all week. Anyway there is this story i read somewhere and I want you to read it too, it is one of the most touching love story, i read in a long time. which call to question how far can we can go to defend our love or what we believe, enjoy yourself as you read.
From the very beginning, girl's family objected strongly on her dating this guy, saying that it has got to do with family background, & that the girl will have to suffer for the rest of her life if she were to be with him.Due to family's pressure, the couple quarreled very often. Though the girl loved the guy deeply, she always asked him: "How deep is your love for me?" As the guy is not good with his words, this often caused the girl to be very upset. With that & the family's pressure, the gal often vents her anger on him. As for him.. he only endured it in silence.After a couple of years, the guy finally graduated & decided to further his studies overseas. Before leaving, he proposed to the gal: "I'm not very good with words. But all I know is that I love you. If you allow me, I will take care of you for the rest of my life. As for your family, I'll try my best to talk them round. Will you marry me?" The girl agreed, & with the guy's determination, the family finally gave in & agreed to let them get married. So before he left, they got engaged. The gal went out to the working society, whereas the guy was overseas, continuing his studies. They sent their love through emails & phone calls. Though it was hard, but both never thought of giving up.
One day, while the gal was on her way to work, she was knocked down by a car that lost control. When she woke up, she saw her parents beside her bed. She realized that she was badly injured. Seeing her mum cry, she wanted to comfort her. But she realized that all that could come out of her mouth was just a sigh. She had lost her voice.... The doctor says that the impact on her brain has caused her to lose her voice. Listening to her parents' comfort, but with nothing coming out from her, she broke down. During the stay in hospital, besides silent cry. it's still just silent cry that accompanied her. Upon reaching home, everything seems to be the same. Except for the ringing tone of the phone which pierced into her heart every time it rang. She does not wish to let the guy know & not wanting to be a burden to him, she wrote a letter to him saying that she does not wish to wait any longer.
With that, she sent the ring back to him. In return, the guy sent millions & millions of reply and countless phone calls. all the gal could do besides crying is still crying.... The parents decided to move away, hoping that she could eventually forget everything & be happy. With a new environment, the gal learnt sign language & started a new life. Telling herself everyday that she must forget the guy. One day, her friend came & told her that he's back. She asked her friend not to let him know what happened to her. Since then, there wasn't anymore news of him.
A year has passed & her friend came with an envelope, containing an invitation card for the guy's wedding. The gal was shattered. When she opened the letter, she saw her name on it instead. When she was about to ask her friend what was going on, she saw the guy standing in front of her.... He used sign language to tell her, "I've spent a year to learn sign language. Just to let you know that I've not forgotten our promise. Let me have the chance to be your voice. I Love You." With that, he slipped the ring back into her finger. The gal finally smiled......
Treat every relationship as if it's the last one, then you'll know how to Give.
Treat every moment as if it's the last day, then you'll know how to Treasure.
Treasure what you have right now, or else you may regret one day...
Have a wonderful week ahead and send out your love to all those who needs it, it might be your turn to receive another time.

What goes around comes around!
His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day, while trying to make a living for his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the boy. There, mired to his waist in black muck, was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a slow and terrifying death.
The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsman's sparse surroundings An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved.
"I want to repay you," said the nobleman. "You saved my son's life." "No, I can't accept payment for what I did," the Scottish farmer replied waving off the offer. At that moment, the farmer's own son came to the door of the family hovel."Is that your son?" the nobleman asked."Yes," the farmer replied proudly."I'll make you a deal.Let me provide him with the level of education my own son will enjoy. If the lad is anything like his father, he'll no doubt grow to be a man we both will be proud of." And that he did.
Farmer Fleming's son attended the very best schools and in time, graduated from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in London, and went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of Penicillin.Years afterward, the same nobleman's son who was saved from the bog was stricken with pneumonia.
What saved his life this time? Penicillin.The name of the nobleman? Lord Randolph Churchill. His son's name?Sir Winston Churchill.Someone once said:
What goes around comes around
Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobody's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.

How to identify a stroke (NOT A JOKE)
I pray that it never happens to anyone but awareness also helps.
STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters... S.T.R.
My friend sent this to me and encouraged me to post it and spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks. Please read:
STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food - while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00pm , Ingrid passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. Some don't die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead. It only takes a minute to read this... A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.
RECOGNIZING A STROKE
Remember the "3" steps, STR . Read and Learn! Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
S * Ask the individual to SMILE .
T * Ask the person to TALK to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)(eg "It is sunny out today").
R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS .
NOTE : Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out their tongue. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke. If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call for help immediately!! and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

YOU DO NOT DESIRE TO BE RICH.
I have always belief i will be a very rich man,infact people around me,my pastors,my wife to be and even my Parents everybody made me belief that i will be very rich and extremely wealthy that i always tell those that care to listen that the issue is not about making money but how to remain faithful to God and comitted to people around me.But recently i discover that all i have been doing is,just wishing to be rich and dwell in the euporia of what people are saying,i don't really desire to be rich.
It is good to wish for a good thing but according to popular saying "If wishes were horses Beggers will ride" it is not enough to wish,but you need to take your wish to another level which is 'DESIRE'. Desire is a state where the particular thing you wish for will become part of you, every idle moment you have will be invested in that particular thing.Your thought,words and action will reflect what you desire.If you actually want to attain a greater height in life pay attention to this:
There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made,and which, in its original state,permeates,penetrates,and fills the interspaces of the universe.A thought in this sustance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.A person can form things in his thought,and by impressing his thought upon formless substance can cause the. thing he thinks about to be created.
In order to do this,a person must pass from the competitive to the creative mind.Otherwise he cannot be in harmony with formless intelligence, which is always creative and never in competitive spirit.A person may come into full harmony with the formless substance by entertaining a lively and sincere gratitude for the blessing it bestow upon him.Gratitude unifies the minds of individuals with the intelligence of substance, so that a person's thought are recieved by the formless.
A person can remain upon the creative plane only by uniting himself with the formless intelligence through a deep and continuos feeling of gratitude.A person must form a clear and definite image of the things he wishes to have,to do,or to become,and he must hold this mental image in his thought,while being deeply grateful to the supreme that all his desire are granted to him.The person who wishes to get rich must spend his leisure hours in contemplating his vision,and in earnest thanksgiving that the reality is being given to him.
Too much stress cannot be laid on the importance of frequent contemplation of the mental image,coupled with unwavering faith and devout gratitude.This is the process by which the impression is given to the formless and creative forces set in motion.The creative energy works through the established channels of natural growth,and of the industrial and social order.All that is included in his mental image will surely be brought to the person who follow the instructins given above,and whose faith does not waver.What he wants will come to him through the ways of establishing trade and commerce.
In order to recieve his own when it is ready to come to him,a person must be in action in a way that causes him to more than fill his present place.He must keep in mind the purpose to get rich through realization of his mental image.And he must do,every day,all that can be done that day,taking care to do each act in a successful manner.He must give to every person a use value in excess of the cash value he recieves,so that each transaction makes for more life,and he must hold the advancing thought so that the impression of increase will be communicated to all with whom he comes into contact.
The men and women who practice the foregoing instructions will certainly get rich,and the riches they recieve will be in exact proportion to the definiteness of their vision,the fixity of their purpose,the steadiness of their faith,and the depth of their gratitude.For more on how to get rich visit:www.scienceofgettingrich.net
