The man who wins....



In life, all of us face hard times... in times we feel that we can't go anymore 'cause we had enough.. IS THAT THE WAY WE SHOULD THINK OR FEEL ? what do you think my friends?
Do we get all the things we wish? or are all the things we have in life are the things we wanted?just because what we got should we think that's the end of life?
"As we sail through life, don't avoid storms and rough waters just let it pass just sail always remember, calm seas never make skillful sailors.......!" (pravsworld.com)
We can be strong in mind or we can be weak, but what matters most is the effort we put to win our life. there can be so many dreams we want to come true, but first think: have you ever give it a try?and how many times have you failed?and were you able to win?just because we like something to happen, will it happen? can even God give it to us? a simple example from me, there is an apple in a tree and a hungry man who passes by see it, he goes under the tree but the branch is too high to reach, the man wish "oh I wish I get that apple!", but he does not put any effort to pick the apple. he is hungry there is an apple, so will his hunger be over now? NO... he has to try to pick the fruit and eat to get rid of his hunger.There are people, who have so many dreams, they wish they will get them come true one day,but do not try to make their dreams come true.So will that man ever get what he wanted?in life both hard and happy times will come we should face both!my favorite quote comes to my mind I hope it gives a lot than I can say..

If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not,you don't.
If you like to win,but you think you can't
It's almost certain you won't

If you think you'll lose,you are lost.
For out of the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow's will
Its all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed you are,
You've got to think high to rise,
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can even win a prize.

Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can!!

So should we give up that easily?
sorrows smiles all these are parts of our life we should face ups and downs equally.Should we get what life offers us?or should we try to get what we want in life?it's up to you to decide.but make sure you get the correct decision.nobody can decide your future it's up to you.Don't be late; time wont wait!So my friend act today! tomorrow can be late.NEVER GIVE UP!!!! THINK YOU CAN! 'cause Nothing is impossible!
"If you want something you never had.
do something you have never done

Don't go the way life takes you.
Take the life the way you go.

And remember you are born to live and
not living because you are born"
- quote -

Miss those days...


Few years back we were there!!
we were learning, chatting,playing,singing...
ohhhh... all the nutty things
yea... it was our paradise!!
the time !!
time has changed!!
today we are far away.. hardly we go there...
yea the place where we became who we are today
the place which has all the sweet memories of the past..
the days we were together
the days we dreamt of future in our memorable bench..
all are now past...
past is it?
yea there are new people there
still doing the same dreaming of future..

yea the time has changed
today there are new people
different people..
same place same warmth...
how much I miss those days...
can words tell them?
life
it changes all the time
today we are here, tomorrow it will be past..
past present and future
yesterday today and tomorrow
people change but memories will remain!!
people,places will come and go
we have to move somehow
past will never come back future is waiting..
so we have to live in present
but past will remain... never forgotten !


May this be a tribute to my Alma mater, who is celebrating 57 th anniversary of her life!

Try !!!! A long way to go....


as i promised yesterday here I am.. yea writing about my ideas about the article I read....
at first I put a comment on the post and yea the writer has appreciated it.I wish that the writer will read my post on the post too.this is on Profession, Future and Country - A Thought
"a reply to the article" i think i am correct if i say like that!
reading the post again and again tells me one thing,almost all the young people have questions on their minds but do they try to answer them.
NO for something or other they do not.. so all the questions are remained unattained,so will there be an end to all those questions??
another question..
so i think i will just leave my point of view. yea most of you will have objections but i will just write down my idea so we can look in to this on different angles.as I see the main thing wrong with us is we wait till someone do first(including me :)),I mean for all the problems.why? where is the initiative power?
we are lacking it.no that should not be the way if there is a problem we should think what we should do to solve it,yea it wont be easy to be solved by ourselves but we can try isn't it? the problems that had been asked by the writer are... well it covers a vast area. so I wont ask to solve them by the writer himself and i do appreciate his power of thinking and thankful for writing on his thoughts.and I would like to say if all of us want to make a better place to live what we should do is to work on it not just questioning the world.(this does not mean I don't appreciate your post, i do but this is for all the other people who still don't think)yea we can start by ourselves .I mean first "I " then "We "and I am sure there will be a lot to join.as it is said
instead of blaming for the darkness what we should do is light at least a single lamp! so why wait?lets get together to make this world a better place.

there is a lot to write on this but again I have to stop now 'cause of the problem i have with time and this is not the full reply i wanted to write but i have to end now so until I am back to be contd...

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,The answer is blowin' in the wind.


Today I happened to read a blog of one of my friends' friend.Reading the only post on it made me surprise.. the writer had written an article which was full of patriotic feelings.It was true feeling of a young man of Sri Lanka.The post made me think a lot... And the following piece of poetry by Bob Dylan hit my mind through out the post...
I think I have to write about the above mentioned post,but today I will just leave Bob Dylan's words
"The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,The answer is blowin' in the wind."



How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

& last but not least i will say A lot to be done only a little done...

is it true????


Do you know the relationship between two eyes..?

They blink together,
They move together,
They cry together,
They see things together and
They sleep together

But they never see each other.. That's what true friendship is!!


But when a beautiful girl comes in front, one eye blinks and the other remains open.....

Moral of the story : Girls can break even the best of friendships !! careful!!

this is a mail i got, nicely worded. i think both girls and boys will have to comment on it.so i wont do it :)

Medicine; Does it really work?



have you ever thought what a small tablet can do to our body?
when we are ill we go to a physician and get medicine..he or she will write some names of some tablets and capsules on a sheet of paper.happily we pay and get them and drink them.yea nowadays that's what most of us do.in this race we hardly have time for ourselves even when we are ill. so we just take some medicine and think it's over.but today after suffering a drug allergy i think i see this in a different way..
yea we get illnesses but inside us there is an immunization system in our body so when an illness comes we should let the system to fight with it and make its own reaction.but what do we do? we quickly take a pain killer or some other medicine.. so we don't get the use of immunization system which the nature has gifted us.and then sometimes the medicine we had react against us and we get allergies. then we have to take more medicine to cure it.
so i think its better if we don't get medicine as fast as we are ill we should wait a little and see.

yea this is an idea i got after suffering four days 'cause of a drug allergy,may be I'm wrong (actually i hardly know about medicine other the names of the medicine i have had I'm not good at medical terms so i beg your pardon if I'm wrong)so its up to you to correct me if I'm wrong .you are always welcome to comment on my posts.

few steps back to past...


when you are alone.. when you have been asked to do nothing but rest on bed what can you do...?
yea someone can ask you to be on bed and make sure that you don't read, go to the computer or do anything like that!but can anyone stop u thinking.....?
no only you can do it but not that easy for you too,and when you are tiered of sleeping what can you do except thinking..????yea the environment is so calm, the birds are singing sun is rising a pleasant day but you cant go out... yea but your mind can roam...
the past is gone its so easy to tell but its really hard to forget it.. yea without even knowing i went to my past life which is obviously not a bed of roses but when it's reminded now it's so sweet the days in that one and only school,the work done in QC Circle ,the tour which gifted me a lot of troubles + good A/L results... and the sweet memories of the best prefects batch ever ;-) the cool days at labs ,the sports meets ohhh what a lot... those are the days !!!
but those days what did i think? i regretted always i asked why this happens to me?
but now i know once sorrow can be once happiness!!(yea its because i thought good thing as bad things 'cause of others comments and regretted)
and if i didn't go through all the hard times; at school if i didn't get all that experiences i had;(those things as i saw as bad experiences at that time) without them i will never be who i am today!

never regret for what you have done as far as you know it is correct,today you will see its terrible but tomorrow it will make you happy if you do the correct thing.
so do what you think is correct people will blame you and they will never make you feel good about what you did(and don't repent if it's correct,as i did in past)
always think and do what is good for all and never do anything which will hurt anyone and again people will hurt you but sympathies them they need it... and only your self consciousness matters so do things which will never make u feel sorry when you turn back and see your past!

Think before you leap....


think before you leap the quote comes to my mind... do you know why? cz i forgot it, and here i am suffering from a cough and a cold also sneezing like nothing....
so think before you leap... :)

Think....


(
so...
here we go... this is on few experiences i had at Leisure World yesterday and the way i see about them. The picture was captured by me few minutes before we paddle the boat under the bridge of the park
..)

The sun is going down among trees and the full moon is rising, it was a nice time for a boat ride, the chilly air and the silent environment made it a perfect evening!

As the crowds were heading back home the park was getting isolated…

Only one event was left for us, it was the boat rides,which all of us didn’t want to miss, and again who will miss it in a nice evening like that?
So we headed that way…
The sound of the water was disturbed by a cry of a baby; finally we reached the edge of the water, to the place where we get in to boats.People are still moving across the bridge it was such a nice time. We were waiting a boat to come.

The sight of few empty plastic water bottles floating on the water made me feel so upset, why don’t our people think about our nature? Yea it is a private park and people will clean it; still it shouldn’t be the way, there were dust bins everywhere so why can’t they put their dump in to a bin?

Its so sad situation we have such a nice country but we as Sri Lankan people don’t try to protect the beauty of it. Once I was near the crescent swing a person came with an empty cup of soft drinks and for the surprise of all the people around that person dumped the cup in to a covered box which was there to cover a tree. The good part is the garbage can was not 2 meters away!!

This is only two incidents but how many of these things happen during a single second through out country??
If we do not think about the nature who will? What will be left for our future generation?

Having all the questions in mind got in to the boat … peddling through the silent water made it an unforgettable evening.

But still I have a lot of problems within me….

Why can’t all of us think about our mother nature? Why cant people understand the value of the nature? Why people pollute the environment they live? Why… why… the list of questions has no ending…

So finally I would like to say this is our nature we should not wait till anyone else does it. We should start it individually; if we think that “I should protect our mother nature” I think we can do a better job. So my friends lets join hands to protect our nature!!!!

it's time to brake the silence.....


it is nonsense to do a blog, that was my first impression about blogging!!
it sounded as if it is like that.... (Still wonder why?)
but later i understood it's the best way to open up me to the world so i started blogging.
as the rays of the sun came up in the new year i started it :)
fresh thoughts fresh ideas fresh energy..... list will go on
all depends on how we think about it.....
so a beginning of a new year & a first step to let the thoughts out...

but still it is not what i expected.....
my busy life has
Override my creativity
so its time to open up
yea the silence should be broken...
its time to let my thoughts out!
yea its a long time i wrote something
ehh... when did i last wrote something....
yea it's the last few minutes of the 2nd day of new year but my blog it's still not what i wanted it to be :(
hmmm.... tomorrow its poya day the first holiday of the year 2007
even before people start work they get holiday :)
everybody has called an early night
but me after a week with less sleep trying to wake the hidden mmmm ......actually the forgotten side of me
life has been a bit too hard on me past few days
it tried to make me what i am not
it has been a hard time but i still survive :)
as my friend reminded "A happy life consists not in the absence, but in the mastery of hardships.!!"
soooo here i am still going.... what is done is nothing compared to what is left to be done!!

Yea... it's time to brake the silence.....

Happy New Year 2007


another year came.....
now it is 2007
years come and go ...
what is most important is how we behave
so hope this year will be a happy one
where everyone
work with
a relaxed mind
a peaceful soul
a joyful spirit
a healthy body
and a loving heart
so the year just began would be a nice one

may peace prevail on earth!! may all be happy!!

FRIENDS ARE THE FLOWERS THAT BLOOM IN LIFE’S GARDEN



Life is a garden
Good friends are the flowers
And time spent together
Life’s happiest hours;
And friendship like flowers,
Blooms ever more fair
When carefully tended
By dear friends who care;
And life’s lovely garden
Would be sweeter by far
If all who passed through it
Were nice as you are...
