Where To Tap

Ever heard the story of the giant ship engine that failed? The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure but how to fix the engine. Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a youngster. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom.

Two of the ship's owners were there watching this man, hoping he would know what to do. After looking tings over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed! A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars.

"What?!" the owners exclaimed. "he hardly did anything!"

So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill."

The man sent a bill that read:

Tapping with a hammer ......................... $ 2.00

Knowing where to tap ......................... $ 9998.00

Effort is Important, but knowing where to make an effort in your life makes all the difference

Allahabad

Something about the place where I have spent memorable moments of my life Allahabad:

Woh Civil Lines ka sama, woh Chowk ki chaat,

Woh Shanti ki Kulfi, Wah usme thi kuch baat.

Woh Kamdhenu ki mithai, woh Loknath ki Rabri,

Woh Spicy Bite ka non-veg….

Woh rikshaw ka saffer, woh Company baag ki hawa,

Woh Katra ki raunak aur rangeen sama.

Woh January ki kadake ki sardi, woh baarishon ke mahiney,

Woh garmi ki chuttiyan, jab chute te they paseeney.

Woh holi ki masti, woh doston ki toli,

Woh diwali ke patakhe aur janmashtmi ki roli

Woh Zamghat ki patange aur woh kabootar Bazi ka khel,

Woh ghar ki chat pe Cricket aur colony ke ladkon ka chaurahe pe mail.

WohKalyani devi ka mahol, woh Ganga ki leheren,

Woh BoatClub ka nazara, Wah uske kya kehene.

Woh Chowk ki galiyan,

Woh Chandrlok ki balcony aur woh Sulaki ki pooriyan

Woh Hotstuff ka Chinese,woh Elchico ka style

Woh Friends pe Coffee jahan hum karte thei smile.

Wo Maikhana pe jashn

Woh school ki life aur woh College ki Zindagi,

Woh College ka rasta aur woh Canteen ki patties

Humne bhi bas dekhe hi the wo saare khel.

Woh KothaParcha ki market,wo highway ke dhabe

woh Shehar ke raaste ,jahan humne safar hain kaate .

Wo Shamiana ke chhole bhature

Wo BHS chauraha , wo station ki Chai

Woh Piya ka paan , kya thi uski shaan ...

Woh Nirala ki chat , aur tez hawa ka maza....

Kya shaan hai Allahabad ki ...Mera Allahabad ..

Itna sab keh diya par dil kehta hai aur bhi kuch kahoon

Wo shehar hain mera apna, jiska naam hai A L L A H A B A D

How to Put Up with Rude Customers

How to Put Up with Rude Customers

An award should go to the Virgin Airlines desk attendant in Sydney some months ago for being smart and funny,

while making her point, when confronted with a passenger who probably deserved to fly as cargo.

A crowded Virgin flight was cancelled after Virgin's 767s had been withdrawn from service.

A single attendant was rebooking a long line of inconvenienced travellers. Suddenly an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk.

He slapped his ticket down on the counter and said, 'I HAVE to be on this flight and it HAS to be FIRST CLASS'.

The attendant replied, 'I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these people first, and I'm sure

we'll be able to work something out.'

The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear,

'DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?'

Without hesitating, the attendant smiled and grabbed her public address microphone: 'May I have your attention please,

may I have your attention please,' she began - her voice heard clearly throughout the terminal.

'We have a passenger here at Desk 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS..

If anyone can help him find his identity please come to Desk 14.'

With the people behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the Virgin attendant, gritted his teeth and said, 'F... You!'

Without flinching, she smiled and said, (I love this bit)

'I'm sorry, sir, but you'll have to get in line for that too.

Cheers :)

Navin's Marriage

My friend Navin Singh is getting married in April from Gorakhpur. Just wanted to thank God that he finally got his life partner, hope he doesn't forgets old friends after marriage lol.

He is my friend since 1996 and its been 15 years we have been together as friends apart from the fact that he lives more than 1000 miles from me. He is a Business man and successfully runs his business in Assam.

We met in the year 1996 in our school Central Academy and from then we have spent lots of memorable moments of life. And in the Year 2000 we passed out our intermediate and he left for Assam and I left for Allahabad for higher studies.

Today I am very happy for my friend about his success and getting his life partner. May God bless the couple with his showers of wishes.

I will surely be there in his precious moment of life.

Love you Navin.

Cheers :)

My Papa

The attached pic is of my dad and mom, currently he is not keeping well however he has a very good will power and i am sure coz of which he will recover very fast.

He is the person who is my idol and I really want to become as successful as him. He started from roots and became a successful person in life. I have never seen him thinking beyond his family's interest. He has done a lot for all of us. He is a kind of person who is there only for his sons and daughters. His family means a lot for him.

He has got lots of pains in his life in business, but apart from that i have never seen him down and his CAN DO Attitude is really very lovable.

Today when my father calls me, i get tears in my eyes coz of his voice, its obvious from his voice that he is not well. GOD PLEASE HELP HIM IN RECOVERING. I love my dad a lot.

My mom and bro is there to take care of him but i am not there coz of my job i would really love to be there. My dad misses me a lot i understand that. I want him to come with me and live with me for a while so that i can also take care of him but he is not that fine that he can travel down to Delhi.

My mom is also not keeping well but she is taking care of him by all means. I admire her a lot coz of this. She is a diabetic patient and her sugar level goes up and down very often. May God bless my family, my borther and sister, my wife and whole world. Amen

My Friends my life

Hello Friends,

The uploaded pics are my friends who helped and supported me in need, who always proved the statement "A friend in need is a friend in deed"

Apart from this one of my best friend is not there in the pic who is Karunakar Singh...he is the one who is my oldest friend but unfortunately i am not able to share his pic in the blog.

Last night i had a long chit chat with him, its always very good talking to him. May God help in achieving his goals and Objectives.

I love you friends some lines for you guys:

Because existence can become severe

in one day,

just sense me and I'll be there.

In the minds eye,

I'm not so far away.

If you hold out your hand,

in the whispers,

I'll become the zephyr.

and besiege you.

If your eye's upon the stars,

in the crystalline darkness,

I'll become the moon.

And the light shall guide you.

If you rest upon the ground,

in the warmth,

I'll become the grass.

And embrace you.

If you turn outside,

in the wetness,

I'll become the rain.

An upon your forehead, kiss you.

If you free the air,

in the light of day,

I'll become the sun.

And smile for you.

Between the miles-

if you need me.

If you need a friend.

Let me be the friend, I want to be.

Cheers :)
