One night President Obama and his wife Michelle decided to do something out of routine & go for a casual dinner at a restaurant that was not too luxurious.

When they were seated, the owner of the restaurant asked the President’s secret service if he could please speak to the First Lady in private. They obliged & Michelle had a conversation with the owner.

Following this conversation, President Obama asked Michelle, “Why was he so interested in talking to you?" She mentioned that in her teenage years, he had been madly in love with her.

President Obama then said, “So if you had married him, you would now be the owner of this lovely restaurant?"

Michelle responded, “No, if I had married him, he would now be the President of The US.”

Believe it or not, SOMETIMES IT'S A WOMAN THAT MAKES A MAN WHO HE IS.

So for the single men that are still searching for a wife, may God help you to find that help mate that will turn you from “a nobody" into "a somebody".

For that single lady that is reading this, may you be that blessing no man can do without.

One morning at a doctor's clinic a patient arrives complaining of serious back pain.

The doctor examines him and asks him:

"Tell me what happened to your back...?"

The patient replies: "Sir, I work for a local night club. This morning I went to my apartment early and heard some noise in my bed room.

On entering I knew someone had been with my wife and the balcony door was open.

I rushed out of the balcony door and did not find anyone.  As I looked down from the balcony I saw a man running out and he was dressing himself.

I was very angry. I grabbed the fridge and threw it at him.  It was very heavy...

That is how I strained my back.!"

Later that day, a second patient arrives as if he has been in a car wreck.

The doctor said: "My previous patient looked bad..

But you look terrible..

What the hell happened to you ?"

He replied: "You know I have been unemployed for a while now.

Today was the first day at my new job...

I forgot to set my alarm and I was late...

I was running out of the building, getting dressed at the same time.

And you won't believe it but I was hit by a fridge.

I don't know how and where from this fridge fell on me...!!!"

Before closing hours, the third patient comes. He looks like he was punished in hell.

The doctor is shocked.

He asks: "What the hell happened to you..??"

The patient replies:

"Well, It started like this, I was in a fridge.........."

“No one can hurt you without your consent.”

On his first day in office as President, when Abraham Lincoln entered to give his inaugural speech, one man stood up. He was a rich Aristocrat.  He said, “Mr. Lincoln, you should not forget that your father used to make shoes for my family.” And the whole Senate laughed; they thought they had made a fool of Lincoln.

But certain people are made of a totally different mettle. Lincoln looked at the man directly in the eye and said, “Sir, I know that my father used to make shoes for your family, and there will be many others here, because he made shoes the way nobody else can.

He was a creator. His shoes were not just shoes; he poured his whole soul into them. I want to ask you, have you any complaint? Because I know how to make shoes myself.  If you have any complaint I can make you another pair of shoes. But as far as I know, nobody has ever complained about my father’s shoes. He was a genius, a great creator and I am proud of my father”.

The whole Senate was struck dumb. They could not understand what kind of man Abraham Lincoln was.  He was proud because his father did his job so well that not even a single complaint had ever been heard.

Remember:
“No one can hurt you without your consent.”

“It is not what happens to us that hurts us. It is our response that hurts us."

They Don't Lie.

A Lawyer Had A Wife And 12 Children & needed to move as his rental agreement coming to an end for the home where he lived but was having difficulty in finding a new home.

When he said he had 12 children, no one would rent a house to

him because they knew that the children would destroy the house.

He could not say that he had no children, he could not lie, after all, Lawyers cannot & do not lie.
 

So, he had an idea: he sent his wife for a walk to the cemetery with 11 children.  He took the remaining one with him to see houses with the real estate agent.

  

He liked one of the house & the agent asked: 

"How many children do you have ?
 He answered : "12 children".

The agent asked "Where are the others ?The Lawyer answered, with a sad look, "They are in the cemetery with their Mother.

And that is the way he was able to rent a house for his family without lying.

MORAL: 

It is not necessary to lie, one only have to choose the right words.
Lawyers don't lie ...They are creative ...

As soon as you die, your identity becomes a “Body”.  

People use phrases like: 

“Bring the Body”, 

“Lower the Body in the Grave”, 

“Take the Body to the Grave yard”, etc.  

People Don’t even call you by your Name whom you tried to impress whole Life…. 

Live  a Life to Impress the Creator not the Creation.

Take chances.. 

Spend money on the things u love… 

Laugh till your stomach hurts… 

Dance even if you are too bad at it… 

Pose stupidly for photos… 

Be child-like…… 

Death is not the greatest loss in life.. Loss is when life dies inside you while you are alive….. 

Celebrate this event called LIFE..

God decided to encourage people who have fewer children and introduced an award scheme. During the procedure at one point, he concentrated on learning about the situation in India.

He first met Jawaharlal Nehru in heaven, and asked him how many children he had during his time on earth.

Nehru replied, "Only one!

Happy with the relatively good family planning adopted, God awarded Nehru with a Rolls Royce!

Indira Gandhi was next, and God asked the same question. She replied she had two children, and God thought, not too bad, so he gave her a BMW.

Dr. Radhakrishnan was next in line. God was not pleased to hear that he had six children, and gave him a Morris-8 as a kind of punishment.

Sometime later, the three (Nehru, Indira & Radhakrishnan) going around in their new cars, saw Mahatma Gandhi on foot!!!
Wondering what went wrong; they asked why God had not been merciful with him.

Then Mahatma replied in disgust, "God did not even ask me!!!

Some idiots had told him that I am Father of the Nation."

There was a king that had 10 wild dogs...

He used them to torture and eats all ministers who made mistakes.  So one of the minister’s once gave an opinion which was wrong, and which the king didn’t like at all…

So he ordered that the minister be thrown to the dogs.

So the minister said, "I served you 10 years and you do this..?  Please give me 10 days before you throw me in with those dogs!

So the king agreed…

In those 10 days the minister went to the guard that was guarding the dogs and told him he wants to serve the dogs for the next 10 days…

The guard was baffled… But he agreed…
So the minister started feeding the dogs, cleaning for them, washing them, providing all sorts of comfort for them.

So when the 10 days were up…
The king ordered that the minister be thrown in to the dogs for his punishment.  But when he was thrown in, Everyone was amazed at what they saw..  They saw the dogs licking the feet of the minister!

So the king baffled at what he saw & asked: “what happened to them.”

The minister then said”
I served the dogs for 10 days and they didn’t forget my service…
Yet I served you for 10 years and you forgot all at the first mistake!”…

So the king realized his mistake and ordered the minister to go free.

This is a gift to all those who forget the good in others as soon as a problem arises.  Don’t wipe out the history that is filled with good because of a small incident you didn’t like

Think…
Reflect…
Act…
Change…
Move On.
Let's learn to be thankful in life.

Family Problems.

Two men, an American and an Indian were sitting in a bar and discussing about their family problems...

The Indian man said to the American, 'We have problem in India we can't marry the one whom we love, You know my parents are forcing me to get married to this so called homely girl from a village whom I haven't even met once.' We call this arranged marriage. I don't want to marry a woman whom I don't love... I told them that openly and now have a lot of family problems.'

The American said, talking about love marriages... In America We can marry the one whom we love... I will tell you my story.

'I married a widow whom I deeply loved and dated for 3 years. After a couple of years, my father fell in love with my step-daughter and married her, so my father became my son-in-law and I became my father's father-in-law.

Legally now my daughter is my mother and my wife my grandmother. More problems occurred when I had a son. My son is my father's brother and so he is my uncle.

Situations turned worse when my father had a son. Now my father's son, my brother is my grandson.

Ultimately, I have become my own grandfather and I am my own grandson. And you say you have family problems.'

The Indian fainted........!!

There was a man with four wives. 

He loved his 4th wife the most and took a great care of her and gave her the best. He also loved his 3rd wife and always wanted to show her off to his friends. However, he always had a fear that she might run away with someone.

He loved his 2nd wife too. Whenever he faced some problems, he always turned to his 2nd wife & she would always help him out.  He did not love his 1st wife though she loved him deeply, was very loyal to him and took great care of him.

One day the man fell very ill and knew that he is going to die soon.

He told himself, "I have four wives with me. I will take one of them along
with me when I die to keep company in my death." Thus, he asked the 4th wife to die along with him and keep company. "No way!" she replied and walked away without another word.

He asked his 3rd wife. She said "Life is so good over here. I'm going to
remarry when you die".  He then asked his 2nd wife. She said "I'm Sorry. I can't help you this time. At the most I can only accompany you till your grave."  By now his heart sank and turned cold.

Then a voice called out: "I will leave with you. I will follow you no matter
where you go." the man looked up and there was his 1st wife. She was so
skinny, almost like she suffered from malnutrition. Greatly grieved, the
man said, "I should have taken much better care of you while I could have!"

Actually, we all have four wives in our lives.

1. The 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it will leave us when we die.

2. The 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, they go to others.

3. The 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how close they
had been there for us when we're alive, the furthest they can stay by us is
up to the grave.

4. The 1st wife is our GOOD DEEDS, neglected in our pursuit of material
wealth and pleasure. It is actually the only thing that follows us wherever we go.....

People say that there is no Difference between

COMPLETE & FINISHED.

But there is a difference.

When you marry the Right One you are COMPLETE

And

When you marry the Wrong One you are FINISHED

And

When the Right One catches you with the Wrong One 

you are COMPLETELY FINISHED.....

Nice Story…...

A keen immigrant Indian lad applied for a salesman's job at London 's premier downtown department store. In fact, it was the biggest store in the world - you could get anything there.

The boss asked him, "Have you ever been a salesman before?" 

"Yes sir, I was a salesman in India", replied the lad. The boss liked the guts of him and said, "You can start tomorrow and I'll come and see you."

The day was long and arduous for the young man, but he got through it.
And finally 6:00 PM came around.
The boss duly fronted up and asked, "How many sales did you make today?"

"Sir, Just ONE sale." said the young salesman.

"Only one sale?" blurted the boss.

"No! No! You see here, most of my staff make 20 or 30 sales a day.
"If you want to keep this job, you'd better be doing better than just one sale.

By the way "How much was the sale worth?"

"3,37,000 pounds" said the young man.

"What"," How did you manage that?" asked the flabbergasted boss. 

"Well", said the salesman,

"This man came in and I sold him a small fish hook, then a medium hook and finally a really large hook.

Then I sell him new fishing rod and some fishing gear.
Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast.

So I told him he'd need a boat, so I took him down to the boat department and sold him that twenty-foot schooner with the twin engines.

Then he said his Volkswagen probably wouldn't be able to pull it, so I took him to our automotive department and sold him that new Deluxe 4X4 Blazer.

I then asked him where he'll be staying, and since he had no accommodation, I took him to camping department and sold him one of those new igloo 6-sleeper camper tents.

Then the guy said, while we're at it, I should throw in about $100 worth of groceries and two cases of beer.

The boss took two steps back and asked in astonishment, "You sold all that to a guy who came in for a fish hook!!"

"No" answered the salesman, "he came in to buy a headache relief tablet and I said to him, "Sir, fishing is best remedy for headache”.

Boss - "You sit in my chair......."
