DAY PREAM ANAND IS NO MORE

People who love me will cry, people who never wished me well, will yet feel bad, my pictures will be used on Facebook, BBM,Whatapp and Twitter, there will be thousands of comments on them from people who knew me and from people who really wished they came in contact with me. There will be no more status update, no more motivational quote's. You will call my phone and I will never pick up,drop thousands of messages that will be unread, then there will no longer be me. If you loved me, how would you feel that day? If you hated me, how would you feel? If I had beg for help from you, and you turned me down,tell me, how you gonna feel? If we had unsettled dispute, what would you be crying for?Looking at the happenings in the world, I think we should live right & be right, love, care and support one another.We all got no duplicate. Make peace always,because you never know when your last "goodbye" will be.

PLEASE RETHINK! ...

MAY WE ALL LIVE LONG

 AND

NOT DIE UNTIMELY

Do we understand life ?

We think we know life. We think, what we think is right, right. We think what we think is the reality, reality. What if I tell you that most of that is incorrect ? You will obviously not believe me. Well don't, just consider the possibility for now.

Plato once said " I am the smartest man on earth , because i know that i know nothing ". He was one of the greatest philosophers who devoted his entire life to understand life and that is what he concluded. And we conclude we are right without even a minute of thought or any questioning. He clearly meant that everyone thinks that they know life but when you actually understand that you don't understand ,that is when you know life and have broken this cage of illusion. But will our ego let us believe that what we thought for our entire life to be true , actually wrong ? Please find an answer.

We are merely puppets of our believes, or to say more accurately , slaves. Terrorists kill thinking there act to be correct. Elders guide thinking they know what's right and children follow thinking that elders know what's right. People bribe and still blame corruption.

Millions in this world will do anything to have a life you are living and we still want more success, status and money to be happy. We care about the size of our car and mobile more than we care about those dying with disease that can be cured or about those dying from starvation. Our fellow humans are suffering from poverty, illiteracy, child labour and thousand other curses and blaming the government is all we can do.

You don't have to do much if you want to understand life, just question your beliefs with a why and have an open mind. Try it, result will be worth the effort.

10 Things I want my daughter Athena to know!

Your name means " Goddess of Wisdom & War " and that is exactly what you are. Your smile brings me overwhelming joy.  Your sweetness melts my heart.  And your beauty lights my world.

Never let anyone dull your flame.  Never let the world harden you, touch the world with your gentle heart.  And what ever life has in store for you, it is my hope that you remember these things:

Love your body.  

Take care of your body, it is the only one you have. Give your body the proper fitness and nutrition that will fuel you for success.  And remember no matter the shape or size, you are perfect the way you are.

Believe in yourself.  Follow your dreams.

"Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent." -Eleanor Roosevelt

Have dreams for yourself and work hard to make those dreams come true.  If hard work is not enough, then fight for it.

Laugh often.  Cry when needed.  Love much.

Laughter warms the heart, a good cry releases the pain and love heals all.

Value your brain and your heart.

Think before you speak, you will gain more respect with a well thought out opinion.  Speak from your heart, what you say will be forgotten but the way you make someone feel never will.

Don't judge others.

Never put your energy into judging another but rather into being a good example for them to be.

Stand up for what is Right.

The greatest things were not achieved by following the crowd but from leading one.  Do what you believe is right and never falter to the pressures of others beliefs.  

Always lend a helping hand.

Live your life with purpose and give purpose to your life.  Never turn a blind eye to someone in need.  Always offer your seat to an elderly person.  Go out of your way to make a child smile.  For doing good deeds will reap the greatest benefits.

Never break a promise.

Never give your word if you can't keep it.  Breaking ones trust is the hardest thing to rebuild.

See the world, take care of it.

See the world.  Savor in it's beauty.  Preserve it for generations to come.

You will always be my baby.

Spread your wings, take the world head on and be the strong, independent woman you were born to be but never feel alone in this world.  You will always have me, you will always be my baby and you will always have a home.

Love your Daddy Pream Anand Tharmalingam

Rules For Dating My Daughter Athena Arlene Anand

Rule One

If you pull into my JALAN and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.

Rule Two

You do not touch my daughter Athena in front of me. You may glance at her,so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off my daughters body, I will remove them.

Rule Three

I am aware that is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open-minded about this issue, so I propose a compromise.You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object. However, to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter Athena, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.

Rule Four

I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without utilizing a "barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate, when it comes to sex, I am the barrier, and I will kill you.

Rule Five

It is usually understood that in order for us to get to know each other, we should talk about sports, cars, and other issues of the day. Please do not do this. The only information I require from you is an indication of when you expect to have my daughter Athena safely back at my house, and the only word I need from you on this subject is "early".

Rule Six

I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many opportunities to date other girls.This is fine with me as long as it is okay with my daughter Athena. Otherwise, once you have gone out with my little girl, you will continue to date no one but her until she is finished with you. If you make her cry, I won't make you cry but surely you will DIE.

Rule Seven

As you stand in my front of my hallway, waiting for my daughter Athena to appear, and more than hour goes by, do not sigh. If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter Athena is putting on her makeup, a process that can take just slightly longer than painting the Mona Lisa Portrait. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like pouring some whiskey for me and entertaining me?

Rule Eight

The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter Athena Arlene Anand : Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool. Places where there are no parents, policemen, humans within eyesight. Places where there is darkness. Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness. Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter Athena to wear shorts, tank tops, or anything other than overalls. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies such as comedy,documentary,biography and cartoons are okay. Soccer and Basketball games are okay. Old folks homes are better.

Rule Nine

Do Not Lie To Me. I might appear to be a dumb looking old man, bald, funny,jovial, smiling like I don't know anything much but on issues relating to my daughter, I am the all-knowing, merciless god of your universe. If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I have a gun, a SHOVEL, and space enough to bury your body behind the house. Do not FUCK AROUND with me.

Rule Ten

Last but not least....Be afraid. Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway. When my devil/hulk inside of me starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the gun as I wait for you to bring my daughter Athena home. As soon as you pull into my JALAN, you should exit your car with both hands in plain sight. Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear vioce that you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your car - there is no need for you to come inside. The camouflaged face at the window is mine, got it Amigo?!!!!!
