Lessons of Humility...
A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He answered the call asap, changed his clothes & went directly to the surgery block. He found the boy's father pacing in the hall waiting for the doctor. On seeing him, the dad yelled:
"Why did you take all this time to come? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't you have any sense of responsibility?"
The doctor smiled & said:
"I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital & I came as fast as I could after receiving the call...... And now, I wish you'd calm down so that I can do my work"
"Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm down? If your own son dies now what will you do??" said the father angrily
The doctor smiled again & replied: "I will say what Job said in the Holy Book "From dust we came & to dust we return, blessed be the name of God". Doctors cannot prolong lives. Go & intercede for your son, we will do our best by God's grace"
"Giving advises when we're not concerned is so easy" Murmured the father.
The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy,
"Thank goodness!, your son is saved!" And without waiting for the father's reply he carried on his way running. "If you have any question, ask the nurse!!"
"Why is he so arrogant? He couldn't wait some minutes so that I ask about my son's state" Commented the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.
The nurse answered, tears coming down her face: "His son died yesterday in a road accident, he was in the burial when we called him for your son's surgery. And now that he saved your son's life, he left running to finish his son's burial."
Moral - Never judge anyone..... because you never know how their life is and what they're going through"

One-sided Love...
He was my bestie….the one I could always rely on. My secrets he kept treasured, my childishness he loved and he accepted me for what I was. I was among those who knew his emotional side. Our parents knew our bonds and if one didn’t find me at my house they knew whom I would be with and vice-versa.
We never compromised our friendship with any other thing. I had grown very strong feelings for him which I never understood when they converted into love but I closed all the doors of my heart fearing to lose him forever. We often exchanged ‘I love you’ which never was meant to cross the boundaries of our friendship. He never made me feel uncomfortable or insecure.
He used to say, “Never will our bond of friendship destroy be the cruelest storms hit, I would be by your side forever and for all, that’s my promise……I can’t live without you”.
His each word meant true. I wanted to see him happy….his charm lied there ...in his smile...in his laughter. I knew I loved him… As our college started we got busy...new life was waiting…new friends, new priorities but nothing affected our friendship. We always took out some time for each other from our schedule for just a chit chat. Then one day he told me about his friend ‘Neha’. He told me how sweet she was and how nice he felt in her company. Soon our conversation was nothing but Neha. Yah! I was hurt in the beginning but soon realized that he was quiet happy with her. People say that in love one just wishes to see other happy be with anyone but in actual a part wants strongly that the one should be ‘me….myself’. I never said a word about my feelings as with time the fear luring inside increased.
One day he simply said, “I can’t live without Neha”.
Those words pierced me like needles…..because once they were meant for me, only me…..suddenly I had lost all my hopes…..my dreams that had him as a part, shattered. When we were in our final year he told me that he proposed her and that she said ‘yes’. The next few moments were purely silent for me….not that he was quiet but I became deaf with the shock…..I locked my tears and congratulated him. Someone has rightly said, “Reward for every true love is not love”.
After our graduation he told me that she wanted to marry him…..I told him I was immensely happy for he had loved the right person who had the courage to take the risk and tell him her wishes. That night I couldn’t sleep, thinking all the time that why couldn’t I have the perfect ending with him? I went through the flashback of our friendship….those wonderful moments that brought smile on my face…..I wondered what if I had conveyed my feelings to him and lost our friendship….maybe I wouldn’t have been left with these memories I could treasure the whole life.
The next day he told me that Neha is leaving and has asked him to reply….she wants him to meet her parents if he is ready to marry her…..he asked me what to do….I knew it was now or never…..also that if he goes there he has to leave me to start an entire new life and if he stays maybe he would regret for his lifetime to lose what he loved….. I looked straight into his eyes and hugged him….for the first time tears rolled down in front of him…..I gave him a peck on his cheek. He was shocked and maybe had finally seen the love in my eyes and asked, “Do you….” But I broke his sentence and whispered in his ear, “GO!” I told him that he would stay a friend forever in my heart. I saw his charming smile for the last time. I let him go to keep his memories treasured forever not only in my heart but in his too without spoiling even a bit.

Trick-or-treating is a Halloween custom for children in many countries. Children in costumes travel from house-to-house, asking for treats with the phrase "Trick or treat".
🍭🍭🍭🎃🎃🎃🍭🍭🍭🍭
The "treat" is usually some form of candy, although, in some cultures, money is used instead. The "trick" is a usually idle threat to perform mischief on the homeowners or their property if no treat is given.
🍭🍭🍭🎃🎃🎃🍭🍭🍭
Trick-or-treating usually occurs on the evening of October 31. Some homeowners signal that they are willing to hand out treats by putting up Halloween decorations outside their doors; others simply leave treats available on their porches for the children to take freely.
🍭🍭🍭🎃🎃🎃🍭🍭🍭
In North America, trick-or-treating has been a Halloween tradition since the late 1920s. In Britain and Ireland the tradition of going house-to-house collecting food at Halloween goes back at least as far as the 16th century, as had the tradition of people wearing costumes at Halloween. In 19th century Britain and Ireland, there are many accounts of people going house-to-house in costume at Halloween, reciting verses in exchange for food, and sometimes warning of misfortune if they were not welcomed.
🍭🍭🍭🎃🎃🎃🍭🍭🍭
The Scottish Halloween custom of "guising" – children disguised in costume going from house to house for food or money – is first recorded in North America in 1911 in Ontario, Canada.
🍭🍭🍭🎃🎃🎃🍭🍭🍭
While going house-to-house in costume has remained popular among Scots and Irish, the custom of saying "trick or treat" has only recently become common. The activity is prevalent in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, Puerto Rico, and northwestern and central Mexico. In the latter, this practice is called calaverita (Spanish for "sugar skull"), and instead of "trick or treat", the children ask ¿me da mi calaverita? ("can you give me my sugar skull?") where a calaverita is a small skull made of sugar or chocolate.

What is Sam Hain?
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
Samhain (pronounced /ˈsɑːwɪn/ SAH-win or /ˈsaʊ.ɪn/ SOW-in, Irish pronunciation: [sˠəuɪnʲ]) is a Gaelic festival marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter or the "darker half" of the year.
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
What is the purpose of Halloween?
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
Halloween is the evening before the Christian holy days of All Hallows' Day (also known as All Saints' or Hallowmas) on 1 November and All Souls' Day on 2 November, thus giving the holiday on 31 October the full name of All Hallows' Eve (meaning the evening before All Hallows' Day)
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
How was Halloween created?
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
The history of Halloween - how it all started. Halloween began as the festival of Samhain. It was part of the ancient Celtic religion in Britain and other parts of Europe. At the end of summer, the Celts thought the barrier between our world and the world of ghosts and spirits got really thin.
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
Seemingly, every glorious, brilliant star in the heavens was caught up in the glittering, snow-frosted branches of their beloved pine, and it was aglow with heavenly candles. And poised on its top most bough, a crystal crescent moon glistened like spun glass. Never had a mere mortal created a Christmas tree such as this. They were breathless as the old man held his wife tighter in his arms.
Suddenly, the old man gave a cry of wonder and incredible joy. Amazed and mystified, he took his wife by the hand and pulled her forward. There, beneath the tree, in resplendent glory, a mist hovering over and glowing in the darkness was their Christmas gift. Shadows glistening in the night light.
Bedded down about the "Old One" close to the trunk of the tree, was the entire herd... safe.
At the first hint of smoke, she had pushed the door ajar with her muzzle and had led the horses through it. Slowly and with great dignity, never looking back, she had led them up the hill, stepping cautiously through the snow. The foals were frightened and dashed about. The skittish yearlings looked back at the crackling, hungry flames, and tucked their tails under them as they licked their lips and hopped like rabbits. The mares that were in foal with a new years crop of babies, pressed uneasily against the "Old One" as she moved calmly up the hill and to safety beneath the pine. And now she lay among them and gazed at the faces of the old man and his wife.
Those she loved she had not disappointed. Her body was brittle with years, tired from the climb, but the golden eyes were filled with devotion as she offered her gift.
Because of love. Only Because of love.
Tears flowed as the old couple shouted their praise and joy... and again the peace of love filled their hearts.

🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂
*"Walking on the edges does not always means that you will fall, may be it is the RUNWAY that is cemented for you to FLY!"*
*BELIEVE IN YOURSELF*
*TAKE RISKS*
*YOU ARE A WINNER*
🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂
🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂
*"If you look to others for fulfillment, you will never be fulfilled. If your happiness depends on money, you will never be happy with yourself. Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the world belongs to you."*
🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂🍃🍂
DON'T BE A VICTIM
1. If walking by yourself, get off your cell phone. A lot of people think that being on the phone is safe because the person on the other line can call 911, but that rarely works out. Chatting can distract you; it's better to be aware of your surroundings. That said…
2. If walking by yourself, hold your cell phone and be ready to make an emergency call. Many phones now have a button on the screen to dial 911 immediately. Go one step further and preset one of the buttons on your phone to call the emergency number.
3. Look underneath your car before approaching it in a parking garage or lot at night.
4. If you return to your car and see that a van is parked right next to the driver's side, enter through the passenger side. Predators often use vans and will disguise it as a family car, even using "Baby on Board" decals.
5. You return to your car and it has a flat tire. Back away. Return to wherever you came from (restaurant, store, etc) and call for help. Once assistance arrives, approach your car. If someone comes up to you (even if they are a woman) and wants to offer help, politely say, "No thank you." If a man, he could be a predator. If a woman, she could be the lurer.
6. When leaving the mall late at night, ask a security guard to walk you to your car. Do not go up to just any security guard. Go directly to the kiosk and ask for them to assign an officer to escort you. Predators sometimes dress up like men of the law.
7. When the pharmacist asks you to confirm your home address, whisper it to them. Broadcasting your home address among strangers on the line could compromise your safety.
8. Ditto if you're checking in to a hotel room. If the person at the front desk says your room number out loud, ask them to give you a new room and write the number on a piece of paper. Or when you check-in, ask upfront that they not say your room number out loud. Your room number should be your business only.
9. Before entering your hotel room, make sure no one is lingering in the hallway.
10. Always immediately lock your hotel room door after you enter.
11. When traveling, do not walk with your map in your hand. It is a dead giveaway that you are a tourist. Therefore, you are an easy target.
12. If you call for room service, and you get a knock on your door, do not immediately open. Ask: "Who is it?" Make the person on the other side of the door tell you who they are before you open it.
13. When asking for directions and someone offers to show you the way by having you follow them, do not go. Just ask for them to point you in the right direction. Often, predators just want to get you to a place less crowded where your screams can't be heard.
14. If someone tries to grab you, twist your arm up and down and yell, "Stop!" Do anything you can to draw attention to yourself.
15. Always pour your own drink at a party and bring it with you everywhere...even to the bathroom. This will make it a lot harder for someone to drug you via you drink.
16. Don't put your name on your apartment buzzer. If you're expecting guests, just let them know which number to push. This way, only people who know you know exactly where you live.
17. If someone is chasing after you, run away in a zig zag pattern. This will exhaust your attacker.
18. Don't check-in on Foursquare or Facebook when you arrive somewhere. Instead, check in as you leave. This way no one will be able to digitally stalk you and know your every move or when you're not home. Along the same lines, avoid tweeting or Facebooking from vacation, especially if your account is public, as it's a way of letting the world know that your home is unoccupied.
18. When you move into a new place, check your smoke detector for a hidden camera. Your landlord could be spying on you.
@american
you must also be optimistic and motivated to achieve your dreams. Seek her advice before making major life decisions, listen to her and take her opinion serious. This will make her feel valued and that she has a role to play in your life.
5) Get her a pet name and ‘your song’
This is the name only you call her. Avoid clichés like honey or sweetheart and go for something creative. The pet name should resonate with her personality. If she is delicate, caring and emotional you can have the name of a flower as her pet name showcasing her fragility. However, if she is an aggressive, tough and determined woman name her after a rare gemstone or rock. Calling her by her pet name has a magical effect on fostering a stronger bond.
Together with her, choose a classic love song that you both like especially one that involves a man and woman singing about how they feel to one another. Make this tune ‘your song’ and learn the lyrics. Whenever together play this song on a stereo then dance and sing along.
6) Surprise her
Surprise her with little yet well-thought gifts. To pull this off you need to pay extra attention to her conversations. What does she yearn for most? Flowers and chocolates may be nice but they are perishable. Electronic gadgets too are easily lost and go obsolete rather fast. Go for gifts that will leave a lasting impression and have sentimental value.
Like you could enlist the help of an artist to paint a portrait of how she looked the first time you met. The portrait should capture everything from her dress, shoes, earrings, and hairstyle and of course her charming smile. At the back of that painting stick a note describing how you felt on that day.
7) Keep her guessing
Once a lady figures out everything about you to the point she can predict your next move then you cease being interesting. Avoid sticking to predictable schedules like texting her “good morning” “how was your day?” and “good night” messages every day at a specific time. When you have nothing new or interesting to say shun from communicating.
Keep her guessing; let her anticipate your next move by being phenomenal. For example when you are both chilling at your place stiff bored ask her to dress up so you can go to some place without revealing the destination. When she is ready, take her paintballing or go-karting especially if she has never been there before.
When you are an enigma she will wonder why you are so different from the other guys in her life. In an effort to figure you out she will spend more time and energy on you. When she thinks she has fully comprehended you pull a rabbit out of the hat and leave her even more baffled.
Wish you a love-filled week!

Use Hurdles To Your Advantage
I'm 20 and got my flu shot today. The nurse who vaccinated me was also 20 but dropped out of high school when she got pregnant at 16.
There is more than one way to live a fulfilling life.
I'm an 20 year old honors student with a 4.3 GPA and a near perfect SAT, doing my Phd, but I have only held short summer jobs.
She's a 20 year old who had to drop out of high school, but she is already a nurse and studying to get her Bachelor's and RN certification.
She looks mature, confident, and like she has her life together. I am still dependent on my parents, and have the confidence of an awkward middle schooler.
Don't let your hurdles hinder you. Use them to your advantage. Create your own definition of successful, and do what it takes to get there

Who brought Halloween to America?
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
As for modern Halloween, Santino, writing in "American Folklore: An Encyclopedia" (Garland, 1996), noted that "Halloween beliefs and customs were brought to North America with the earliest Irish immigrants, then by the great waves of Irish immigrants fleeing the famines of the first half of the nineteenth century.
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
What does Halloween come from?
🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
The word Halloween or Hallowe'en dates to about 1745 and is of Christian origin. The word "Hallowe'en" means "hallowed evening" or "holy evening". It comes from a Scottish term for All Hallows' Eve (the evening before All Hallows' Day). In Scots, the word "eve" is even, and this is contracted to e'en or een.

Because of love
A brother and sister had made their usual hurried, obligatory pre-Christmas visit to the little farm where dwelt their elderly parents with their small herd of horses.
The farm was where they had grown up and had been named "Lone Pine Farm" because of the huge pine, which topped the hill behind the farm. Through the years the tree had become a talisman to the old man and his wife, and a landmark in the countryside.
The young siblings had fond memories of their childhood here, but the city hustle and bustle added more excitement to their lives, and called them away to a different life.
The old folks no longer showed their horses, for the years had taken their toll, and getting out to the barn on those frosty mornings was getting harder, but it gave them a reason to get up in the mornings and a reason to live. They sold a few foals each year, and the horses were their reason for joy in the morning and contentment at day's end.
Angry, as they prepared to leave, the young couple confronted the old folks, "Why do you not at least dispose of 'The Old One.' She is no longer of use to you. It's been years since you've had foals from her. You should cut corners and save so you can have more for yourselves. How can this old worn out horse bring you anything but expense and work? Why do you keep her anyway?"
The old man looked down at his worn boots, holes in the toes, scuffed at the barn floor and replied, " Yes, I could use a pair of new boots."
His arm slid defensively about the Old One's neck as he drew her near with gentle caressing he rubbed her softly behind her ears. He replied softly, "We keep her because of love. Nothing else, just love."
Baffled and irritated, the young folks wished the old man and his wife a Merry Christmas and headed back toward the city as darkness stole through the valley.
The old couple shook their heads in sorrow that it had not been a happy visit. A tear fell upon their cheeks. How is it that these young folks do not understand the peace of the love that filled their hearts?
So it was, that because of the unhappy leave-taking, no one noticed the insulation smoldering on the frayed wires in the old barn. None saw the first spark fall. None but the "Old One."
In a matter of minutes, the whole barn was ablaze and the hungry flames were licking at the loft full of hay. With a cry of horror and despair, the old man shouted to his wife to call for help as he raced to the barn to save their beloved horses. But the flames were roaring now, and the blazing heat drove him back. He sank sobbing to the ground, helpless before the fire's fury. His wife back from calling for help cradled him in her arms, clinging to each other, they wept at their loss.
By the time the fire department arrived, only smoking, glowing ruins were left, and the old man and his wife, exhausted from their grief, huddled together before the barn. They were speechless as they rose from the cold snow covered ground. They nodded thanks to the firemen as there was nothing anyone could do now.
The old man turned to his wife, resting her white head upon his shoulders as his shaking old hands clumsily dried her tears with a frayed red bandana. Brokenly he whispered, "We have lost much, but God has spared our home on this eve of Christmas. Let us gather strength and climb the hill to the old pine where we have sought comfort in times of despair. We will look down upon our home and give thanks to God that it has been spared... and pray for our beloved most precious gifts that have been taken from us."
And so, he took her by the hand and slowly helped her up the snowy hill as he brushed aside his own tears with the back of his old and withered hand.
The journey up the hill was hard for their old bodies in the steep snow. As they stepped over the little knoll at the crest of the hill, they paused to rest, looking up to the top of the hill the old couple gasped and fell to their knees in amazement at the incredible beauty before them.

*"It is not what what we say or what we feel. It is what we do that defines us.

🎯👆🏻You may be going through some turbulence in your life right now.
But I just want to remind you that, it's only temporary. No problem lasts forever. It shall soon pass. So hold on, don't throw in the towel so quickly!
The night maybe dark and cold but sunrise is just at the corner. Yes, when the night is at its darkest, remember dawn is near.
If you can come this far, then you can finish it. That is why I say don't give up. And don't stop believing in yourself that you can do it.
Yes, you can do it. I BELIEVE IN YOU!
Great day ahead! 🏇🤺🏊♀⛷🤼♀⛹♀🤾🏻♂💪💐

Wooing a lady especially one you fancy the most is akin to walking through a minefield. One wrong move and it ends catastrophically. Check out for signs she is also attracted to you before putting in motion a plan to win her affection in order to minimize the chances of being rejected. You cannot just walk up to a lady who barely knows you, confess your undying love and expect her to welcome you with both hands wide open. There is a need to adopt a winning tactic before proposing any kind of relationship. There is a need to adopt a winning tactic before:
1) Declare your intentions
The most common mistake guys make is by becoming best friends with a lady they really like then later try to turn the relationship into a romantic one. Trying to transform a platonic relationship into a romantic affair is utterly quixotic; it only happens in the movies. Let her know from the start that you think of her as a potential
Let her know from the start that you think of her as a potential partner, not a sister. This means when she begins blabbing and seeking your advice on some other ‘cute dude’ who is eyeing her you immediately interject “Sorry I’m not going discuss other guys with you. Let’s keep this conversation between you and me!”
Even when you are sure she is the one you would wish to spend the rest of your life with never reveal this on the first few days. Proclaiming that you want to marry and have 5 kids with her on the first date will only scare her off especially if she isn’t interested in settling down just yet. Drop subtle hints that you are interested in a possibly long term relationship without much detail.
2) Share little intimate details about self
The most effective way of encouraging a lady to open up with you about her life is by sharing little intimate details about your own life with her. This will make her feel trusted and special. Share with her about your ambitions albeit careful not to seem too proud, innermost fears, childhood memories and your weaknesses like how you sometimes cry when watching a movie with a touching storyline. Remember to also tell her about your most embarrassing moments while infusing humor. Being able to laugh at your own embarrassing moments exudes confidence.
Avoid bragging about what your family members have achieved or the flashy cars and palatial homes you own. This may impress a few opportunistic girls but a lady who makes her own money will not fall for such. She is interested in knowing who you really are as a person, not your net worth.
3) Charm her
Since ladies are auditory creatures, words will always have a profound effect on them. Notice every little detail about her like when she sports a new hairstyle or when she does her nails. Compliment her regularly. Remind her of how irresistible she is. How lovely her eyes are, how enchanting her smile is and how beautiful she is. Let her know the effect she has on you like how your mind goes blank when she gives you a certain look. Never forget to highlight her inner beauty too.
Hold her hand in public, hug her from behind, kiss her neck and watch the sunset with her. Take her to a secure park at midnight, lie on a mat and watch the stars. The greatest secret to being a charmer is showing a lady how you treasure, find her attractive and care about her without saying the 3 magical words until the time is right.
4) Become her main source of inspiration
It gets to a point in life when we get comfortable with the little we have and stop working towards bettering ourselves. Challenge her status quo, inspire her to move out of her comfort zone and pursue her wildest dreams. Find out what she is so passionate about and help her achieve it. For instance, if she likes helping the less fortunate in the society, help her organize a fund drive and accompany her to the social works missions.
When other people tell her it’s impossible, hold her hand, reassure her of your unwavering support and trust in her abilities. When she is discouraged and depressed ignite the verve in her. To become her main source of inspiration
