RAMADAN KAREEM

Posted on September 23, 2006 | 6 comments
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim year which follows a lunar calendar. Each month begins with a sighting of the moon’s crescent and lasts 29 or 30 days until a sighting of the next month’s crescent.

The month of Ramadan commemorates the days when the Angel Gabriel imparted the wisdom of the Koran, Islam’s holy book, to the Prophet Mohammed.

It is during this month that Muslims fast. It is called the Fast of Ramadan and lasts the entire month. According to Sharia, or Islamic law, all adult Muslims must fast during the holy month. Only the sick, pregnant and nursing women, and travelers are exempt. This makes the fasting a worldwide phenomenon observed by the devoted among the world’s one billion Muslims as one international community.

 
 
During the Fast of Ramadan strict restraints are placed on the daily lives. Muslims are not allowed to eat or drink during the daylight hours. Smoking and sexual relations are also forbidden during fasting. At the end of the day the fast is broken with a meal called the Iftar. The fasting person must abstain from lying, cheating, argumentation, fighting, foul language and every sort of evil. These are considered offensive at all times, but are most offensive during the Fast of Ramadan.
 
 
During Ramadan, Muslims continue with their prayers five times a day, but after the night prayer is performed, a special prayer called Taraweeh is performed. This is a voluntary prayer that consists of reading the Quran during the time of Ramadan. The length of this prayer is usually 2-3 times as long as the daily prayers. In many mosques the whole Quran is read during Taraweeh prayers over the month. In some mosques it is read several times.
 
 
When Ramadan arrives, everybody congratulates his neighbors and relatives. You can see the happiness all over.

People start to prepare for Sohour (a very late meal before sun raise). Mostly Sohour contains Foul (Fava Beans), cheese, yogurt and bread. After Sohour some people wait until they pray Fajar then they go to work or go to sleep.

DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?

Posted on August 31, 2006 | Leave a comment

DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?

During one of our seminars, a woman asked a common question. She said, " How do I know if I married the right person ?"

I noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so I said, " It
Depends. Is that your husband?"

In all seriousness, she answered " How do you know?"

Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it’s
Weighing on your mind.

EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fell in love with
Your spouse. You anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and liked
Their idiosyncrasies.

Falling in love with your spouse wasn’t hard. In fact, it was a
Completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn’t have to DO anything. That’s why it’s called "falling" in love… Because it’s happening TO YOU.

People in love sometimes say, " I was swept of my feet." Think about the
Imagery of that __expression. It implies that you were just standing
There; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened TO YOU.

Falling in love is easy. It’s a passive and spontaneous experience.

But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria of love fades. It’s the
Natural cycle of EVERY relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls
Become a bother ( if they come at all

), touch is not always welcome ( when it happens), and your spouse’s idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute,  drive you nuts.


The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship, but if you
Think about your marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference between the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage.

At this point, you and/or your spouse might start asking, " Did I marry
The right person?" And as you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of
The love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with someone else. This is when marriages breakdown. People blame their spouse for  their
Unhappiness and look outside their marriage for fulfilment.

Extramarital fulfilment comes in all shapes and sizes. Infidelity is
The most obvious. But sometimes people turn to work, church, a hobby, a friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances.

But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your marriage.
It lies within it.

I’m not saying that you couldn’t fall in love with someone else. You
Could.

And TEMPORARILY you’d feel better. But you’d be in the same situation a few years later. Because ( listen carefully to this):

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT’S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.
 
SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It’ll NEVER just happen to you. You can’t "find " LASTING love. You have to "make"  it day in and day out. That’s why we have the __expression " the labor of  love."
Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it
Takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make your marriage work.

Make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific
Things you can do ( with or without your spouse ) to succeed with your marriage.

Just as there are physical laws of the universe ( such as gravity),
There are also laws for relationships. Just as the right diet and exercise
Program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your
Relationship WILL make your marriage stronger. It’s a direct cause and effect. If  you know and apply the laws, the results are predictable… You can " make" love.


Love in marriage is indeed a " decision"… Not just a feeling.

blue ray disc !

Posted on August 13, 2006 | Leave a comment
SONY’S DISK drive division is working hard to introduce Blue-Ray. It merged with NEC in April and will try to take as much market as possible. But despite the fact that some Blu-Ray consumer recorders are out and about, there won’t be any computer drives on the shelves before August.While Sony can’t say much about the pricing of such drives, it can say one thing: they will be expensive. Its Blu-ray drives will be able to read and write DVDs, CDs as well as Blu-Ray disks. In fact the disks are already available and they should cost between  £70 and £106 for a single-layer 25GB disk and much
more for 50GB dual-layer platter.

TURNING TORSO:

Posted on August 9, 2006 | 2 comments

 A view of the 190-metre-tall, 54-floor Turning Torso apartment tower in Malmo, Sweden, on Saturday. Offering a stupendous view over the Oresund Sound between Sweden and Denmark, the building turns 90 degrees around its own axis. Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava got the idea for the tower from observing the human body in motion.

hmmm sad story la

Posted on August 1, 2006 | 1 comment
One night a guy & a girl were driving

 home from the movies.

The boy sensed there was something wrong

because of the painful silence they shared

 between them that night.

The girl then asked the boy to pull over

 because she wanted to talk.

 She told him that her feelings had changed

& that it was time to move on.

 A silent tear slid down his cheek as

he slowly reached into his pocket & passed

 her a folded note.

At that moment,

a drunk driver was speeding down that very

same street.

 He swerved right into the drivers seat,

 killing the boy.

 Miraculously, the girl survived.

Remembering the note,

 she pulled it out & read it.

"Without your love, I would die."

What do you think?

Posted on July 28, 2006 | Leave a comment
A college class was told that they had to write a short story in as
few words as possible.  The instructions were that the short story had
to contain the following three things:

(1) Religion,
(2) Sexuality,
(3) Mystery.

Below is the only A+ short story in the entire class:

"Good God, I’m pregnant; I wonder who did it."

Managers vs. Engineers

Posted on July 23, 2006 | 1 comment
Three Engineers and three Managers are going to a conference and had to travel
by train to get there.  At the station, the three Managers bought their three
tickets and watched as the three Engineers bought only a single ticket. "How
are three people going to travel on only one ticket?" asked a Manager. "Just
watch and you’ll see," answered an Engineer.
 

They all board the train and the Managers took their seats and watched as all
three Engineers cram into a restroom and close the door behind them. The train
departed and shortly afterward, the conductor came around collecting tickets.
He knocked on the restroom door and said, "Ticket, please." The door opened
just a crack and a single arm emerged with a ticket in hand. The conductor took
it and moved on.

The Managers saw all this and agreed it is quite a clever idea. So after the
conference, the Managers decide to copy the Engineers on the return trip and
save some money (expense reports). When they got to the station, they bought a
single ticket for the return trip. But to their astonishment, the Engineers
didn’t buy a ticket at all.

"How are you going to travel without a single ticket?" asked one Manager.
"Just watch and you’ll see," answered an Engineer.
They board the train. The three Managers cram into a restroom compartment and
the three Engineers cram into an another one nearby.

The train departed. Shortly afterward, one of the Engineers left his restroom,
walked over to the Managers stall, knocked on the door and said, "Ticket,
please."

Peanuts

Posted on July 22, 2006 | Leave a comment

A tour bus driver is driving with a bus load of seniors down a highway
When he is tapped on his shoulder by a little old lady.
She offers him a handful of peanuts, which he gratefully munches up.

After about 15 minutes, she taps him on his shoulder again and she hands him another handful of peanuts.  

She repeats this gesture about five more times.

When she is about to hand him another batch again he asks the little old lady, “why don’t you eat the peanuts yourself?".

"We can’t chew them because we’ve no teeth", she replied.

The puzzled driver asks,

"Why do you buy them then?"
The old lady replied,  

"We just love the chocolate around them."

When a Girl

Posted on July 16, 2006 | 2 comments

When a girl is quiet, millions of things are running thru her head.

When a girl is not arguing, she is thinking deeply.

When a girl looks at you, she is wondering how long you will be around.

When a girl answers "I’m fine" she is not fine.

When a girl lays her head on your chest she is wishing for you to be hers forever.

When a girl calls you everyday she wants your attention.

When a girl wants to see you everyday, she wants to be loved and pampered by you.

When a girl says "I love you" she means it.

When a girl says she misses you, no one else in this world can miss you more than she does
