Monica married Hitesh this day. At the end of the wedding party, Monica's mother gave her a newly opened bank saving passbook. With Rs.1000 deposit amount.

Mother: 'Monica, take this passbook. Keep it as a record of your marriage life. When there's something happy and memorable happened in your new life, put some money in. Write down what it's about next to the line. The more memorable the event is, the more money you can put in. I've done the first one for you today. Do the others with Hitesh.When you look back after years, you can know how much happiness you've had.'

Monica shared this with Hitesh when getting home. They both thought it was a great idea and were anxious to know when the second deposit can be made.

This was what they did after certain time: - 7 Feb: Rs.100, first birthday celebration for Hitesh after marriage - 1 Mar: Rs.300, salary raise for Monica - 20 Mar: Rs.200, vacation trip to Bali - 15 Apr: Rs.2000, Monica got pregnant - 1 Jun: Rs.1000, Hitesh got promoted ..... and so on...
However, after years, they started fighting and arguing for trivial things.They didn't talk much. They regretted that they had married the most nasty people in the world.... no more love...Kind of typical nowadays, huh? One day Monica talked to her Mother: 'Mom, we can't stand it anymore. We agree to divorce. I can't imagine how I decided to marry this guy!!!'

Mother: 'Sure, girl, that's no big deal. Just do whatever you want if you really can't stand it. But before that, do one thing first. Remember the saving passbook I gave you on your wedding day? Take out all money and spend it first. You shouldn't keep any record of such a poor marriage.' Monica thought it was true. So she went to the bank, waiting at the queue and planning to cancel the account.

While she was waiting, she took a look at the passbook record. She looked, and looked, and looked. Then the memory of all the previous joy and happiness just came up her mind. Her eyes were then filled with tears. She left and went home.

When she was home, she handed the passbook to Hitesh, asked him to spend the money before getting divorce.

The next day, Hitesh gave the passbook back to Monica. She found a new deposit of Rs.5000. And a line next to the record: 'This is the day I notice how much I've loved you thru out all these years. How much happiness you've brought me.'

They hugged and cried, putting the passbook back to the safe.

Do you know how much money they had saved when they retired? I did not ask.I believe the money did not matter any more after they had gone thru all the good years in their life.
"When you fall, in any way,
Don't see the place where you fell, Instead see the place from where you slipped.

Life is about correcting mistakes."

"See dad, the scenery of green trees moving away is very beautiful"This behavior from a 30-year old son made the other people feel strange about him. Every one started murmuring something or other about this son.
"This guy seems to be a crack.." newly married Anoop whispered to his wife.Suddenly it started raining... Rain drops fell on the travelers through the open window. The 30- year old son, filled with joy "see dad, how beautiful the rain is...."
Anoop's wife got irritated with the rain drops spoiling her new suit. Anoop said, "Can't you see it's raining, you old man, if your son is not feeling well, get him soon to a mental asylum and don't disturb public henceforth"
The old man hesitated first and then in a low tone replied "we are on the way back from the hospital, my son got discharged today morning, he was blind by birth and last week only he got his vision, this rain and nature are all new to his eyes. Please forgive us for the inconvenience caused..."
"The things we see may be right from our perspective until we know the truth. But when we know the truth our reaction to that will hurt even us. So try to understand the problem better before taking a harsh action".

Laughter as medicine

Have you laughed today? Good thing if you have because most people take life too seriously.

But those who laugh are healthier because laughing helps them loosen up. Though it causes the pulse initially to quicken, it slows down considerably, so that blood pressure sinks.

"The skeletal muscles relax and the overall result is better circulation to the muscles," said psychologist Michael Titze, chairman of an association called HumourCare in Tuttlingen, Germany, and a researcher into laughter.

Laughing also helps to break down stress hormones and build up hormones associated with happiness. And laughing helps to increase the immune defences in the bloodstream, including those that help the body protect itself from cancer and heart disease. The antibody-containing immunoglobulin in the saliva, which inhibits germ attacks on respiratory organs, also rises.

"Laughing, among other things, tenses the muscles in the eye and activates positive emotions in the brain," said Titze, adding that laughter is an expression of pure deliverance and total tension release. "Through laughter we abandon self control."

The therapist therefore advocates looking for things that trigger laughter in daily life and activating the laugh reflex.

"Laughing induces good mood and that in turn engenders hearty and intense laughter," Titze said. But today this is difficult for many people.

"Laughing demands a bit of courage," said Claudia Madelaine Zimmer of a club in Leipzig dedicated to laughing. To a certain degree, the discipline needed to raise children wears down the ability to have fun. People fear losing their authority by having fun or doing something ridiculous. However, people with humour not only live healthier, they are also better at solving conflicts, she believes.

But because it's often difficult to have a good laugh, people all over the world are joining laugh clubs. Zimmer said such clubs meet regularly, and do "laugh yoga". This sends resounding laughter into the streets, not because the laughter exercises are so funny, but because it's actually a way to practise laughing.

Chuckles, giggles and snickers - "You don't have to make a big deal of it, we're dealing with something that we actually can do," said Michaela Schaeffner, chairwoman of the association of the German laugh-yoga therapists in Munich.

The goal is to laugh without reason or inhibition. This initially seems artificial, but with a bit of training people can learn "to go into natural laughter from collective, intentional laughter". And because you can scarcely think about it while in laugh training, the relaxation is all the greater.
