Thank You Terrorists---what they facilitated


Thank You Terrorists.

 

 

In 60 blood-soaked hours, you have achieved what we as a nation haven't achieved in 60  years of independence.


Today, we want answers.


Today, we won't lie back and wait for someone else to do the job.


Today, we won't be lulled into inaction by glib talks and subterfuge.


Today we won't say "chalta Hai "


Today we won't vote for goons.


Today we will not accept religion or caste or creed, just nationality.
Thank you, terrorists....


In 60 horrifyingly sickening hours, you have awoken a giant that lay asleep for 60 years of sovereignty.


Every Indian will now walk together.


Every Indian will now value his vote.


Every Indian will now demand accountability.


Every Indian will now see through lies and deceit.


Every Indian will now demand explanations.


Every Indian will now stand up to be counted.
Thank you, terrorists...


In 60 gruesome, murderous hours you've instilled a pride in us that we couldn't instill in 60 years of liberty.


You have left behind a reminder that we the people can make a difference.


You have left behind a reason to unite rather than divide.


You have left behind a nation with sheer will & intent.


You have left behind a spirit that dances to a new beat.


You have left behind a billion renewed patriotic hearts.


You have left behind a voice that will be heard.
Thank you, terrorists...


If only you'd let the innocent live & taken the lives of 200 politicians instead…

 


A humble plea to my fellow Indians


The next time politicians tear down a place of worship; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians divide us on the grounds of religion; let's label them terrorists..


The next time politicians divide us on the basis of state; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians with criminal records stand for elections; lets label them terrorists.


The next time politicians take kick-backs on arms deals; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians jump parties to grab power, let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians politicize terror; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians twiddle their thumbs while our cities burn; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians capture voting booths; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians accumulate assets disproportionate to their income; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians transfer honest policemen; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians provide substandard equipment to our forces; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians misuse our taxes; let's call them terrorists.


The next time politicians skip meetings on national security; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians play an opportunistic blame game; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians try every trick in the book to hang on to their "kursis"; let's label them terrorists.


The next time politicians insult a martyr's family; let's label them terrorists

This could be the change we are looking for-Try it once





Government of India has an online Grievance forum at
http://darpg-grievance.nic.in/
The government wants people to use this tool to highlight the problems
they faced while dealing with Government officials or departments like
Passport Office, Electricity board, BSNL/MTNL, Railways etc etc.

I know many people will say that these things don't work in India ,
but this actually works as one of our colleague in CSC found. The guy
I'm talking about lives in Faridabad .. Couple of months back, the
Faridabad Municipal Corporation laid new roads in his area and the
residents were very happy about it. But 2 weeks later, BSNL dugged up
the newly laid roads to install new cables which annoyed all the
residents including this guy. But it was only this guy! Who used the
above listed grievance forum to highlight his concern. And to his
surprise, BSNL and Municipal Corporation of faridabad was served a
show cause notice and the guy received a copy of the notice in one
week. Government has asked the MC and BSNL about the goof up as it's
clear that both the government departments were not in sync at all.

So use this grievance forum and educate others who don't know about
this facility.
This way we can at least raise our concerns instead of just talking
about the ' System' in India . Invite your friends to contribute for
many such happenings.

STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES



 

A Violinist in the Metro A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousand of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.   Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule. A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work. The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk turning his head all the time. This action was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on.

  In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money but continued to walk their normal pace. He collected $32. When he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded, nor was there any recognition.

  No one knew this but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the best musicians in the world. He played one of the most intricate pieces ever written with a violin worth 3.5 million dollars. Two days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theater in Boston and the seats average $100.  This is a real story. Joshua Bell playing incognito in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of an social experiment about perception, taste and priorities of people. The outlines were: in a commonplace environment at an inappropriate hour: Do we perceive beauty? Do we stop to appreciate it? Do we recognize the talent in an unexpected context?
One of the possible conclusions from this experience could be:
If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music ever written, how many other things are we missing?

Then I turn and lift violin in someone else,
And they turn, and this turning continues,
 
It has reached you now. Isn't that something...

A quick management course


Lesson 1: 
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings. 

 
The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs. 

 
When she opens the door, there stands Bob , the next-door neighbor. 

Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel...' 


After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob , after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves. 

The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.. 


When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?' 

'It was Bob the next door neighbor,' she replies.
 

'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?' 


Moral of the story: 
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure. 

Lesson 2: 
A priest offered a Nun a lift. 

She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg. 


The priest nearly had an accident. 

 
After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg. 

The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' 


The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again. 
The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' 

The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.' 

Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way. 

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.' 


Moral of the story: 
If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity. 
 
Lesson 3: 
A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. 


They rub it and a Genie comes out. 
The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.' 
'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk 'I want to be in the  Bahamas  
, driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.' 
Puff! She's gone. 

'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.' 
Puff! He's gone. 

'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager. 
The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch'
 

Moral of the story: 
Always let your boss have the first say.
 

Lesson 4
 
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. 

A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?' 
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.' 

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it. 


Moral of the story: 
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
 

Lesson 5 
A turkey was chatting with a bull. 
 
'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.' 

'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.' 

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. 

 
The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. 

 
Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.
 

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree. 

Moral of the story: 
Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.. 


Lesson 6 
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. 
 
While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. 

As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. 

 
The dung was actually thawing him out! 

 
He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.
 
 
Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him. 


Morals of the story: 
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy. 

(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend...
 

(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!
 

    THUS ENDS THE FIVE MINUTE MANAGEMENT COURSE

Send this to (at least) five bright, humorous people who have enough

sense of humor to laugh at it!
