The Warning Signs and Symptoms of Stroke

Strokes are more common, and just as serious, as you think. It is one of the leading causes of disability and death. It is important to know the warning signs and body language that suggest someone may be experiencing a stroke.

If you didn't know already, a stroke is the rapid loss of brain function due to a disturbance in blood supply to the brain. A stroke is a serious medical emergency that can cause permanent neurological damage and even death. The risk factors for stroke include old age, high blood pressure, previous strokes, diabetes, high cholesterol and tobacco smoking. Strokes are currently the second leading cause of death worldwide.

So what are the warning signs?

It is crucial to know the warning signs for strokes because the sooner they are treated and addressed, the less chance that there will be serious damage to the brain. Stroke symptoms can develop gradually, but usually the symptoms appear rather suddenly and without warning. Stroke symptoms include:

-Numbness or weakness in the face, arm, leg and especially on one side of the body

-Sudden confusion or trouble understanding other people

-Trouble speaking or a sudden slurring of words when an individual typically does not have difficulty with speech

-Trouble seeing in one or both eyes

-Trouble walking, staying balanced or coordinated. This, together with the sudden pain, are usually why some people affected by stroke will suddenly fall down

-Dizziness or light-headedness

-Severe headaches that come on for no apparent reason

There are also various kinds of strokes that you should be aware of:

Ischemic Stroke: This kind of stroke happens when a blood vessel supplying blood to the brain becomes blocked for a variety of reasons, most common being a sudden blood clot.

Hemorrhagic Stroke: This is a very serious form of stroke because it occurs when a blood vessel ruptures and bleeds into the brain.

Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA): This is considered a 'mini stroke', usually from a temporary blockage. TIA does not cause permanent damage to the brain, but it may cause some of the stroke warning signs listed above, some of which may last anywhere from minutes to hours. These are warning signs that you should not ignore.

What should you do if you or a loved one has symptoms?

-Don't ignore the warning signs: even if you have only one of the warning signs consult a doctor or hospital immediately

-Don't wait because every minute counts!

-Call emergency services if you or a loved one experiences one or more of the symptoms within a few minutes

-Check the time when the symptoms begin so that you can share this information when you arrive at the hospital.

Watch an instructional video by survivors of stroke on the importance of recognizing stroke body language and symptoms.
Remeber,  strokes can be a very serious matter, so be aware of the symptoms and body language that suggest you or someone you love are suffering a stroke, and consult a doctor if you think signs are becoming persistent.

Why Are Some of Us Cold?

We all get cold from time to time. But some of us get cold more often than others, especially at our toes and hands. Why do some people feel colder than others? What causes us to feel cold?

Here are a few explanations of why you might be feeling cold where the next person doesn't.






Hypothyroidism
The thyroid gland supervises the body's metabolism with the help of two hormones: Thyroxin (T4) and Triudotironin (T3) which it makes out of iodine. A malfunction in the thyroid gland can lead to a lower amount of activity (Hypothyroidism) or too much activity (hyperthyroidism). 

In Hypothyroidism, the metabolism is slowed down, which manifests as sensitivity to cold, feeling tired, gaining weight, slower heartbeat and blood pressure, loss of hair, muscle contraction, skin dryness, fragile fingernails and a decrease in libido.

"Standard blood tests usually miss about 50% of Hypothyroidism cases," explains Dr. Jacob Teitlbaum, author of the book 'From Fatigued to Fantastic'. "If the test comes back without finding a problem," says Dr. Teitlbaum, "but you still see a problem, you may want to consult with a more holistic doctor."

A Shortage in Iron
Iron is needed for the transfer of oxygen by our blood to the cells of the body, to be harvested into energy. Low levels of iron can explain why you are feeling cold. "If you don't have enough energy due to a shortage in iron, your inner thermostat might get damaged and that is why you are cold." Says Dr. Teitlbaum.

Ask your doctor to take a blood test to check the ability of the blood to retain iron. The norm measurements for men should be 12-300 nanograms per ml. For women, it is 7-140 nanograms per ml. And for children - 7-140 nanograms per ml.

A low count in this test points to a shortage in iron, which may quickly lead to anemia. You can increase your iron intake by eating red meat, liver or oysters, and of course you can always take supplements. A doctor visit is advised.

Lack of Sleep
When the body doesn't get enough rest, the nervous system, which helps regulate the temperature of the body, is undermined, which may express itself as dropping body temperatures. In past decades, more people used to get 8 hours of sleep a night. But in the era of internet, mobile phones and televisions, that period of sleep is significantly shortening and with it the quality of sleep. Allow yourselves to make up for essential sleeping time to return the balance to your nervous system.

Raynaud's Syndrome
If you find that your hands hurt or tingle whenever you're outside, you may be suffering from Raynaud's Syndrome. "This happens when small blood vessels that are supplying blood to the skin, shrink and restrict the flow of blood to our extremities." Says Dr. Teitlbaum.

This syndrome is manifested by the appearance of paleness in the ends of our fingers or toes, and in many cases it is a result of prolonged exposure to cold, accompanied by mental pressure. This can also happen from over-smoking or using medicine that shrinks your blood vessels. "To know if you suffer from this, put your fingers in the freezer and see if they turn white."  Taking magnesium can help take care of symptoms, as well as quitting smoking, putting on gloves and socks and addressing cases of chronic pressure.

Candida
Candida is a fungus of yeast found naturally in the colon that is controlled by the immune system. Only sometimes it gets out of hand, which increases the pressure on the activities of the hypothalamus, a brain area responsible, among other things, for regulating and monitoring body temperature. Usually, the candida gets out of control in people who have taken too many antibiotics, which harms good bacteria in the intestines and can be expressed by prolonged headaches, tiredness and a sensitivity to cold.

"To rid yourselves of the candida," says Dr.Teitlbaum, "It's recommended to take probiotics and to limit the intake of sugar and yeast, so as not to feed the fungus."

Stress
One of the main characteristics of our society today is stress. While worries are an inseparable part of our daily lives, ongoing stress can put stress on the hypothalamus and cause problems with its functioning. Even a low stress that doesn't go away can accumulate and weaken the bodily functions that are dependent on the hypothalamus, such as the thyroid gland or the internal temperature control of our bodies. 

It isn't easy to fight stress, among the best solutions are Meditation, focusing on positive aspects of life, finding time to rest and eliminating the causes of stress in our lives.

There is such a thing as too thin
Animals that live in very cold places, such as seals, penguins and whales, have a very thick layer of fat to insulate them from the outside temperature. A person who is too low on fat, automatically becomes sensitive to cold. Make sure your BMI (Body Mass Index) isn't lower than 18.5 (the lowest normal measure).

Different Parts of Our Body Age At Different Times

We all accept that getting older is inevitable. A leading clinicians have revealed the exact age when different body parts start to decline, most alarming being the brain and lungs.

French doctors have found that the quality of men's sperm starts to deteriorate by 35, so that by the time a man is 45 a third of pregnancies end in miscarriage. Here, with the help of leading clinicians, Angela Epstein tells the Daily Mail the ages when different parts of the body start to lose their battle with time.

BRAIN - Starts aging at 20
As we get older, the number of nerve cells - or neurons - in the brain decrease. We start with around 100 billion, but in our 20s this number starts to decline. By 40, we could be losing up to 10,000 per day, affecting memory, co-ordination and brain function.

GUT - Starts aging at 55. 
A healthy gut has a good balance between harmful and 'friendly' bacteria. But levels of friendly bacteria in the gut drop significantly after 55, particularly in the large intestine, says Tom MacDonald, professor of immunology at Barts And The London medical school. As a result, we suffer from poor digestion and an increased risk of gut disease. Constipation is more likely as we age, as the flow of digestive juices from the stomach, liver, pancreas and small intestine slows down.

BREASTS - Start aging at 35
BY their mid-30s, woman's breasts start losing tissue and fat, reducing size and fullness. Sagging starts properly at 40 and the aureole (the area surrounding the nipple) can shrink considerably.

BLADDER - Starts aging at 65
Loss of bladder control is more likely when you hit 65. Women are more vulnerable to bladder problems as, after the menopause, declining estrogen levels make tissues in the urethra - the tube through which urine passes - thinner and weaker, reducing bladder support. Bladder capacity in an older adult generally is about half that of a younger person - about two cups in a 30-year-old and one cup in a 70-year-old. ...

LUNGS - Start aging at 20
Lung capacity slowly starts to decrease from the age of 20. By the age of 40, some people are already experiencing breathlessness. This is partly because the muscles and the rib cage which control breathing stiffen up.

VOICE - Starts aging at 65
Our voices become quieter and hoarser with age. The soft tissues in the voice box (larynx) weaken, affecting the pitch, loudness and quality of the voice. A woman's voice may become huskier and lower in pitch, whereas a man's might become thinner and higher.

EYES - Start aging at 40
Glasses are the norm for many over-40s as failing eyesight kicks in - usually long-sightedness, affecting our ability to see objects up close.

HEART - Starts aging at 40
The heart pumps blood less effectively around the body as we get older. This is because blood vessels become less elastic, while arteries can harden or become blocked because of fatty deposits forming on the coronary arteries - caused by eating too much saturated fat. The blood supply to the heart is then reduced, resulting in painful angina. Men over 45 and women over 55 are at greater risk of a heart attack.

LIVER - Starts aging at 70
This is the only organ in the body which seems to defy the aging process.

KIDNEYS - Starts aging at 50
With kidneys, the number of filtering units (nephrons) that remove waste from the bloodstream starts to reduce in middle age.

PROSTATE - Starts aging at 50
The prostate often becomes enlarged with age, leading to problems such as increased need to urinate, says Professor Roger Kirby, director of the Prostate Centre in London . This is known as benign prostatic hyperplasia and affects half of men over 50, but rarely those under 40. It occurs when the prostate absorbs large amounts of the male sex hormone testosterone, which increases the growth of cells in the prostate. A normal prostate is the size of a walnut, but the condition can increase this to the size of a tangerine.

BONES - Start aging at 35
'Throughout our life, old bone is broken down by cells called osteoclasts and replaced by bone-building cells called osteoblasts - a process called bone turnover,' explains Robert Moots, professor of rheumatology at Aintree University Hospital in Liverpool . Children's bone growth is rapid - the skeleton takes just two years to renew itself completely. In adults, this can take ten years. Until our mid-20s, bone density is still increasing. But at 35 bone loss begins as part of the natural aging process.

TEETH - Start aging at 40
As we age, we produce less saliva, which washes away bacteria, so teeth and gums are more vulnerable to decay. Receding gums - when tissue is lost from gums around the teeth - is common in adults over 40.

MUSCLES - Start aging at 30
Muscle is constantly being built up and broken down, a process which is well balanced in young adults. However, by the time we're 30, breakdown is greater than buildup, explains Professor Robert Moots. Once adults reach 40, they start to lose between 0.5 and 2 per cent of their muscle each year. Regular exercise can help prevent  this.

HEARING - Starts aging mid-50s
More than half of people over 60 lose hearing because of their age, according to the Royal National Institute for the Deaf.

SKIN - Starts aging mid-20s
The skin starts to age naturally in your mid-20s.

TASTE AND SMELL - Start aging at 60
We start out in life with about 10,000 taste buds scattered on the tongue. This number can halve later in life. After we turn 60, taste and smell gradually decline, partly as a result of the normal ageing process.

FERTILITY - Starts aging at 35
Female fertility begins to decline after 35, as the number and quality of eggs in the ovaries start to fall. The lining of the womb may become thinner, making it less likely for a fertilized egg to take, and also creating an environment hostile to sperm.

HAIR - Starts aging at 30
Male hair loss usually begins in the 30s. Hair is made in tiny pouches just under the skin's surface, known as follices. A hair normally grows from each follicle for about three years, is then shed, and a new hair grows.  Most people will have some grey hair by the age of 35. When we are young, our hair is coloured by the pigments produced by cells in the hair follicle known as melanocytes.

10 Indian Women Freedom Fighters

We Salute

There is something about those moments during the flag hoisting which makes our heart bloom with pride and patriotism, isn't it? And as India celebrated its 63rd Republic Day, let's take a moment to remember all the brave Indian women  who made our country proud.


Rani of Jhansi: You will hardly find an Indian who hasn't grown up hearing the brave adventures of Rani Laxmibai of Jhansi. She was one of the leading personalities in the National Uprising of 1857. Because of her never-say-die spirit, today she is an epitome of courage and her name is used as a metaphor for bravery!

Sarojoni Naidu: Sarojini Naidu has been a beacon of inspiration to many women. At a time when women were oppressed to a large extent in many states, she was one of the first few women who stepped out and took the reins of leadership in her own hands. As the first woman President of Indian National Congress and Governor of Uttar Pradesh, she displayed some rare qualities. Her poems continue to inspire us.

Begum Hazrat Mahal: She was one of the iconic freedom fighters of the National Uprising in 1857. When the mutiny began, she was one of the first freedom fighter who urged the rural folk to rise up against the British oppression. She thus seized the control of Lucknow and announced her son as the King of Oudh. However, when the British recaptured Lucknow, she was forced to retreat to Nepal.

Vijaylakshmi Pandit: Like her brother Jawaharlal Nehru, she too felt passionately for her country. After serving our nation for years, she became the first woman President of the United Nations General Assembly. A writer, a diplomat, and a politician, her works are an inspiration to many young women.

Kittur Rani Chennamma: Even though you may hardly be familiar with her name, she was one of the earliest Indian rulers who fought for freedom. 33 years before the National Uprising, this queen of a princely state in Karnataka led an armed rebellion against the British, and lost her life in the end. Even today, she is revered as one of the bravest women in Karnataka.

Bhikaiji Cama: Bhikaji Cama is undoubtedly one of the bravest women in the history of Indian Freedom Struggle. She was one of the pioneers in setting up the Indian Home Rule Society. When in exile, she wrote several revolutionary literatures from the freedom movement. She even made radical speeches for gender equality in Egypt.

Sucheta Kriplani: With the dedication and passion that she exuded for her country during the struggle, she was elected as the first woman Chief Minister of any Indian state. She stepped up for her country with the Quit India Movement and she was one of Gandhiji's close associates in several Partition riots. She was a role model and encouraged many women to join the struggle.

Aruna Asaf Ali: She was an active member of the Congress Party who not just fought for our country's freedom, but also for the rights of political prisoners in Tihar Jail. She launched a hunger strike for the latter and her efforts resulted in improved conditions but she was subjected to solitary confinement. She displayed great courage by standing up to the oppressive rule as well as her family who were against the idea of her marrying a Muslim (she was originally a Brahmo).

Savitribhai Phule: "If you educate a boy, you educate an individual but if you educate a girl, you educate the whole family," was the words in which she firmly believed in. Tired of seeing women being oppressed and being denied the rights of education, Savitribai Phule took it upon herself to provide girl education. Even though she had to bear the insults and abuse which were thrust upon her by the higher class, she continued to provide basic education to girls and women.

Usha Mehta: She was one of the youngest freedom fighters of the Indian freedom movement. She was hardly five years old when she met Gandhi and was inspired by his ideals. At the age of 8, she participated in the `Simon Go Back' protest. Even though her father who was a judge under the British Raj tried his best to dissuade her from participating in the freedom struggle, she made sure to be a part of it in small yet significant ways. After quitting her studies to be a part of the Quit India Movement, she dedicated herself completely to the struggle.

आज की smart बहू
-----------------------------
एक बहु और एक सास ,
और उनके पुत्र श्री प्रकाश ,
बैठे थे उदास ।

अचानक माँ ने कहा -
" बेटा कल्पना करो कि
हम और बहू दोनों गंगा जी नहाने जाएँ,
हमारा पैर फिसल जाये,
और हम दोनों डूबने लग जाएं,
तो तू अपना धरम कैसे निभाएगा
डूबती हुई माँ और बीबी में किसको बचाएगा ?"

मेहरबान ! कदरदान ! साहिबान !

लड़का था परेशान।
उसके दिमाग में कोई युक्ति नहीं आई ।
क्योंकी,
एक तरफ था कुआँ
और दूसरी तरफ था खाई ।

अचानक बीबी ने मुंह खोला
और यूँ बोली -
हे पतिदेव,
आप अपना धर्म
श्रवण कुमार की तरह निभाना
डूबती हुई माँ और बीबी में
अपनी माँ को ही बचाना ।
माँ की ममता की लाज को मत लजाना।
अरे हमारा क्या है
हम तो जवान हैं,
मौत से भी जूझ जायेंगे
और हमें बचाने
तो
जिन्हे तैरना नहीं आता
वो भी कूद जायेंगे।"
😝😝😂💃💃💃😜😀

मैखाने मे आऊंगा मगर...
पिऊंगा नही साकी...
ये शराब मेरा गम मिटाने की औकात
नही रखती......

"खामोश बैठें तो लोग कहते हैं उदासी अच्छी नहीं, ज़रा सा हँस लें तो मुस्कुराने की वजह पूछ लेते हैं" !!

हद-ए-शहर से निकली तो गाँव गाँव चली।
कुछ यादें मेरे संग पांव पांव चली।
सफ़र जो धूप का किया तो तजुर्बा हुआ।
वो जिंदगी ही क्या जो छाँव छाँव चली।।....

तू होश में थी फिर भी हमें पहचान न पायी;
एक हम है कि पी कर भी तेरा नाम लेते रहे!

हजार जवाबों से अच्छी है खामोशी,
ना जाने कितने सवालों की आबरू रखती है !

"सूरज ढला तो
कद से ऊँचे हो गए साये,
कभी पैरों से रौंदी थी,
यहीं परछाइयां हमने..

काग़ज़ की कश्ती थी
पानी का किनारा था।
खेलने की मस्ती थी
ये दिल अवारा था।
कहाँ आ गए
इस समझदारी के दलदल में।
वो नादान बचपन भी
कितना प्यारा था ...!

जमीन छुपाने के लिए गगन होता है...
दिल छुपाने के लिए बदन होता है....
शायद मरने के बाद भी छुपाये जाते है ग़म....इस लिए हर लाश पे कफ़न होता है

मेरे लफ़्ज़ों से न कर
मेरे क़िरदार का फ़ैसला ll
तेरा वज़ूद मिट जायेगा
मेरी हकीक़त ढूंढ़ते ढूंढ़ते l

कब्र की मिट्टी हाथ में लिए सोच रहा हूं,
लोग मरते हैं तो गु़रूर कहाँ जाता है.

किनारे पर तैरने वाली
लाश को देखकर
ये समझ आया…
बोझ शरीर का नही साँसों का था..!!

यह जो मेरी क़ब्र पर रोते हैं,
अभी ऊठ जाऊँ,
तो ये जीने न दे..!!

मेरे पीठ पर जो जख्म़ है,
वो अपनों की निशानी हैं,
वरना सीना तो आज
भी दुश्मनो के इंतजार मे बैठा है..

जरुरत तोड देती है
इन्सान के घमंड को..
न होती मजबूरी तो
हर बंदा खुदा होता.!!!

जिसको गलत तस्वीर दिखाई,
उसको ही बस खुश रख पाया.
जिसके सामने आईना रक्खा,
हर शख्स वो मुझसे रूठ गया..!!

दो अक्षर की "मौत"
और
तीन अक्षर के "जीवन" में ढाई अक्षर
का "दोस्त"
हमेंशा बाज़ी मार जाता हैं..
क्या खुब लिखा है किसी ने ...

"बक्श देता है 'खुदा' उनको, ... !
जिनकी 'किस्मत' ख़राब होती है ... !!

वो हरगिज नहीं 'बक्शे' जाते है, ... !
जिनकी 'नियत' खराब होती है... !!"

न मेरा 'एक' होगा, न तेरा 'लाख' होगा, ... !
न 'तारिफ' तेरी होगी, न 'मजाक' मेरा होगा ... !!

गुरुर न कर "शाह-ए-शरीर" का, ... !
मेरा भी 'खाक' होगा, तेरा भी 'खाक' होगा ... !!

जिन्दगी भर 'ब्रांडेड-ब्रांडेड' करने
वालों ... !
याद रखना 'कफ़न' का कोई ब्रांड नहीं होता ... !!

कोई रो कर 'दिल बहलाता' है ... !
और कोई हँस कर 'दर्द' छुपाता है ... !!

क्या करामात है 'कुदरत' की, ... !
'ज़िंदा इंसान' पानी में डूब जाता है और 'मुर्दा' तैर के
दिखाता है ... !!

'मौत' को देखा तो नहीं, पर शायद 'वो' बहुत
"खूबसूरत" होगी, ... !
"कम्बख़त" जो भी 'उस' से मिलता है,

Roz taaro ko numaish me khalal padta hai
chaand pagal hai andhere me nikal padta hai

uski yaad aai hai sanso zara aahista chalo
dhadkano se bhi ibaadat me khalal padta hai



ye hadsa to kisi din guzarne wala tha
me bhach bhi jata to ek roz marne wala tha

mera naseeb mere haath kat gaye
warna me teri maang me sindoor bharne wala tha



Tufano se aankh milao, sailabo pe waar karo
mallaho ka chakkar chodo tair ke dariya paar karo

phulo ki dukane kholo khushbu ka wyopaar karo
ishq khata he to ye khata ek baar nahi sau bar karo



jaa ke ye koi keh de koi sholo se chingari se
phool is baar khile badi tyaari se

badshaho se bhi feke hue sikke na liye
hamne khairaat bhi mangi hai to khuddari se

Mera apna tajurba hai tumhe batla raha hu main
koi lab chu gaya tha tab ke ab tak gaa raha hu main
bichud ke tum se ab keise jiya jaaye bina tadpe
jo me khud he nahi samjha wohi samjha raha hu main..



Mere jeene me marne me tumhara naam aaye
game saanse rok lu fir bhi yahi ilzaam aayega
har ek dhadkan me jab tum ho to fir apraadh kya mera
agar radha pukaregi to fir ghanshyam aayega...



koi patthar ki murat hai kisi patthar me murat hai
lo hamne dekh li duniya bahut hi khoobsurat hai
zamana apni samjhe par mujhe apni khabar ye hai
tujhe meri zaroorat hai, mujhe teri zaroorat hai.

Salute to all girls

TOP 5 REGRETS OF THE DYING:


Ware writes of the phenomenal clarity of vision that people gain at the end of their lives, and how we might learn from their wisdom. "When questioned about any regrets they had or anything they would do differently," she says, "common themes surfaced again and again."

Here are the top five regrets of the dying, as witnessed by Ware:

1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.

"This was the most common regret of all. When people realise that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people had not honoured even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they had made, or not made. Health brings a freedom very few realise, until they no longer have it."

2. I wish I hadn't worked so hard.

This came from almost every patient that she nursed. They missed their children's youth and their partner's companionship. All of the men I nursed deeply regretted spending so much of their lives on the treadmill of a work existence.

3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.

Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace with others. As a result, they settled for a mediocre existence and never became who they were truly capable of becoming. Many developed illnesses relating to the bitterness and resentment they carried as a result.

4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.

"Often they would not truly realise the full benefits of old friends until their dying weeks and it was not always possible to track them down. Many had become so caught up in their own lives that they had let golden friendships slip by over the years. There were many deep regrets about not giving friendships the time and effort that they deserved. Everyone misses their friends when they are dying."

5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.

"This is a surprisingly common one. Many did not realise until the end that happiness is a choice. They had stayed stuck in old patterns and habits. The so-called 'comfort' of familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending to others, and to their selves, that they were content, when deep within, they longed to laugh properly and have silliness in their life again."

What's your greatest regret so far, and what will you set out to achieve or change before you die?

श्रीमती जी की रात के दो बजे अचानक नींद खुली तो पाया कि पति बिस्तर से नदारद है।

जिज्ञासावश उठीं, खोजा,...
तो देखा डाइनिंग टेबल पर बैठे
पति जी कॉफी का कप हाथ में ले कर,
विचारमग्न, दीवार को घूर रहे हैं।

पत्नी चुपचाप पति को कॉफी की चुस्की लेते हुए बीच-बीच में आँख से
आँसू पोंछते देखती रही।

फिर पति के पास गई और बोलीं, “क्या बात है, डियर? तुम इतनी रात
गए यहाँ क्या कर रहे हो..?”

पति जी ने कॉफी से नज़र उठाई। “तुम्हें याद है, 14 साल पहले जब
तुम सिर्फ 18 साल की थीं?”

पति बड़ी गम्भीरता से बोला..।

पत्नी पति के प्यार को देख कर भाव
विभोर हो गई, बोली, “हाँ, याद
है..।”

कुछ रुक कर पति जी बोले “याद है जब तुम्हारे जज पिता जी ने हमें
मेरी कार मे घुमते हुए देख लिया था' । पत्नी हाँ हाँ.. याद है..।”

“याद है कैसे उन्होंने मेरी कनपटी पर
बन्दूक रख कर कहा था,
“या तो इस से शादी कर लो, या 14 साल के लिए अन्दर कर दूँगा..।”
“हाँ.. हाँ.. वह भी याद है।”

अपनी आँख से एक और आँसू पोंछते हुए पति बोला.. “.

…आज मैं छूट
गया होता...!!”

शेयर मार्केट में
पैसा कैसे डूबता है
एक बार एक आदमी ने
गांववालों से
कहा की वो 100 रु .में एक बन्दर
खरीदेगा ,
ये सुनकर सभी गांव वाले
नजदीकी जंगल की और
दौड़ पड़े
और वहां से बन्दर पकड़ पकड़ कर 100
रु .में उस
आदमी को बेचने लगे .......
कुछ दिन बाद ये सिलसिला कम
हो गया और
लोगों की इस बात में
दिलचस्पी कम
हो गयी .......
फिर उस आदमी ने
कहा की वो एक एक बन्दर के
लिए 200 रु .देगा ,
ये सुनकर लोग फिर बन्दर पकड़ने में
लग गये ,
लेकिन कुछ दिन बाद
मामला फिर
ठंडा हो गया ....
अब उस आदमी ने
कहा की वो बंदरों के लिए
500 रु . देगा ,
लेकिन क्यूंकि उसे शहर
जाना था उसने इस काम के
लिए एक असिस्टेंट नियुक्त कर
दिया ........
500 रु .सुनकर गांव वाले बदहवास
हो गए ,
लेकिन पहले ही लगभग सारे बन्दर
पकडे जा चुके थे
इसलिए उन्हें कोई हाथ
नही लगा ...... तब उस
आदमी का असिस्टेंट उनसे आकर
कहता है .....
" आप लोग चाहें तो सर के पिंजरे में
से 400 -
400 रु . में बन्दर खरीद सकते हैं ,
जब सर आ जाएँ तो 500 -500 में बेच
दीजियेगा "...
गांव वालों को ये प्रस्ताव
भा गया और उन्होंने
सारे बन्दर 400 - 400 रु .में खरीद
लिए .....
अगले दिन न वहां कोई असिस्टेंट
था और न
ही कोई सर ....... बस बन्दर
ही बन्दर

This is the truth of stock market...

आखिर पति के लिए
पत्नी क्यों जरुरी है??
मानो न मानो
.💞
.💞
जब तुम दुःखी हो तो वो तुम्हे
कभी अकेला नहीं छोङेगी।।
.💞
.💞
.💞
हर वक्त, हर दिन तुम्हे तुम्हारे अन्दर
की बुरी आदतें छोङने को कहेगी।।
💞.
.💞
हर छोटी छोटी बातों पर तुमसे
झगङा करेगी, परंतु ज्यादा देर
गुस्सा नहीं रह पाती।।
.💞
.💞
तुम्हें आथिॅक मजबूती देगी।।
.💞
.💞
.💞
कुछ भी अच्छा ना हो फिर
भी तुम्हें यही कहेगी- चिन्ता मत
करो, सब ठीक हो जायेगा।।
.💞
.💞
.💞
तुम्हें समय का पाबंद बनायेगी।।
.💞
.💞
.💞
ये जानने के लिए कि तुम क्या कर
रहे हो, दिन में 15 बार फोन करके
हाल पूछेगी।।
.💞
.💞
.💞
कभी कभी तुम्हे खीझ
भी आयेगी पर सच ये है कि तुम कुछ
कर नहीं पाओगे।।
..💞
..💞
चूंकि पत्नी ईश्वर का बना एक
स्पेशल उपहार है, इसलिए
उसकी उपयोगिता जानो और
उसकी देखभाल करो।।💞
ये मैसेज हर विवाहित पुरुष के
मोबाइल मे होना चाहिये
ताकि उन्हें
अपनी पत्नी की कीमत
का अंदाजा हो💞

Kuch vasthu tips🔴🔴🔴🔴
💥१. घर में सुबह सुबह कुछ देर के लिए भजन अवशय लगाएं ।
💥२. घर में कभी भी झाड़ू को खड़ा करके नहीं रखें, उसे पैर नहीं लगाएं, न ही उसके ऊपर से गुजरे अन्यथा घर में बरकत की कमी हो जाती है। झाड़ू हमेशा छुपा कर रखें |
💥३. बिस्तर पर बैठ कर कभी खाना न खाएं, ऐसा करने से बुरे सपने आते हैं।
💥४. घर में जूते-चप्पल इधर-उधर बिखेर कर या उल्टे सीधे करके नहीं रखने चाहिए इससे घर में अशांति उत्पन्न होती है।
💥५. पूजा सुबह 6 से 8बजे के बीच भूमि पर आसन बिछा कर पूर्व या उत्तर की ओर मुंह करके बैठ कर करनी चाहिए । पूजा का आसन जुट अथवा कुश का हो तो उत्तम होता है |
💥६. पहली रोटी गाय के लिए निकालें । इससे देवता भी खुश होते हैं और पितरों को भी शांति मिलती है |
💥७.पूजा घर में सदैव जल का एक कलश भरकर रखें जो जितना संभव हो ईशान कोण के हिस्से में हो |
💥८. आरती, दीप, पूजा अग्नि जैसे पवित्रता के प्रतीक साधनों को मुंह से फूंक मारकर नहीं बुझाएं।
💥९. मंदिर में धूप, अगरबत्ती व हवन कुंड की सामग्री दक्षिण पूर्व में रखें अर्थात आग्नेय कोण में |
💥१०. घर के मुख्य द्वार पर दायीं तरफ स्वास्तिक बनाएं।
💥११. घर में कभी भी जाले न लगने दें, वरना भाग्य और कर्म पर जाले लगने लगते हैं और बाधा आती है |
💥१२. सप्ताह में एकबार जरुर समुद्री नमक अथवा सेंधा नमक से घर में पोछा लगाएं | इससे नकारात्मक ऊर्जा हटती है |
💥१३. कोशिश करें की सुबह के प्रकाश की किरने आपके पूजा घर में जरुर पहुचे सबसे पहले |
💥१४. पूजा घर में अगर कोई प्रतिष्ठित मूर्ती है तो उसकी पूजा हर रोज निश्चित रूप से हो ऐसी व्यवस्था कर.

Terey honton ko salaam
Jinn se chhoo jaaney ko tarsey kai saagar, kai jaam

In gulaabon pe jaley jab se tabbassum ke diye
Theek uss din se meri pyaas bujhaaney ke liye
Terey honton ke kinaarey hain merey dil ka qayaam

Tu jab in honton ko daanton mein daba leti hai
Teri yeh chup kissi toofaan ka pata deti hai
Pyaas jo inn mein chupi hai, issey kardey merey naam

Mein bhi pyaasa hoon, bahut pyaas lagi hai mujh ko
Teri umeed, teri aas lagi hai mujh ko
Kab karenge merey honton se, terey hont kalaam

Terey honton ko salaam
Terey honton ko salaam
Jinn se choo jaaney ko tarsey kai saagar, kai jaam

Tu Apni Shisha Gari Ka Hunar Naa Kar
Main Aaina Hoon Mujhe Tootne Ki Aadat Hai

जीभ जन्म से होती है और मृत्यु तक रहती है क्योकि वो कोमल होती है.

दाँत जन्म के बाद में आते है और मृत्यु से पहले चले जाते हैं... क्योकि वो कठोर होते है। 

छोटा बनके रहोगे तो मिलेगी हर
बड़ी रहमत...
बड़ा होने पर तो माँ भी गोद से उतार
देती है...


किस्मत और पत्नी
भले ही परेशान करती है लेकिन
जब साथ देती हैं तो
ज़िन्दगी बदल देती हैं.।।



 एक मित्र ने बहुत ही सुंदर पंक्तियां भेजी है, फारवर्ड करने से खुद को रोक नहीं पाया ....

 "प्रेम चाहिये तो समर्पण खर्च करना होगा।

विश्वास चाहिये तो निष्ठा खर्च करनी होगी।

साथ चाहिये तो समय खर्च करना होगा।

किसने कहा रिश्ते मुफ्त मिलते हैं ।
मुफ्त तो हवा भी नहीं मिलती ।

A man brings his best buddy home for dinner ... unannounced at 7:30 pm after work.

His wife begins screaming at him & his friend just sits & listens in.

Wife: My hair & makeup are not done, the house is a mess, the dishes are not done, I'm still in my pajamas & I can't be bothered with cooking tonight ! Why the hell did you bring him home for ?

Husband: Because he's thinking of getting married & I promised him a demo !

दो दिन पहले जन्मी एक कन्या, अपने दाँतों से खाई है
अब ना देखो किसी की बाट
आदेश करके उतारो इसे मौत के घाट
जज की आँख हो गयी लाल
तूने क्यूँ खाई कन्या, जल्दी बोल डाल

जज साहब, इसे जिन्दा मत रहने दो
कुत्ते का वकील बोला, लेकिन इसे कुछ कहने तो दो
फिर कुत्ते ने मुंह खोला ,और धीरे से बोला
हाँ, मैंने वो लड़की खायी है
अपनी कुत्तानियत निभाई है
कुत्ते का धर्म है ना दया दिखाना
माँस चाहे किसी का हो, देखते ही खा जाना
पर मैं दया-धर्म से दूर नही
खाई तो है, पर मेरा कसूर नही
मुझे याद है, जब वो लड़की छोरी कूड़े के ढेर में पाई थी
और कोई नही, उसकी माँ ही उसे फेंकने आई थी
जब मैं उस कन्या के गया पास
उसकी आँखों में देखा भोला विश्वास
जब वो मेरी जीभ देख कर मुस्काई थी
कुत्ता हूँ, पर उसने मेरे अन्दर इन्सानियत जगाई थी
मैंने सूंघ कर उसके कपड़े, वो घर खोजा था
जहाँ माँ उसकी थी, और बापू भी सोया था
मैंने भू-भू करके उसकी माँ जगाई
पूछा तू क्यों उस कन्या को फेंक कर आई
चल मेरे साथ, उसे लेकर आ
भूखी है वो, उसे अपना दूध पिला
माँ सुनते ही रोने लगी
अपने दुख सुनाने लगी
बोली, कैसे लाऊँ अपने कलेजे के टुकड़े को
तू सुन, तुझे बताती हूँ अपने दिल के दुखड़े को
मेरी सासू मारती है तानों की मार
मुझे ही पीटता है, मेरा भतार
बोलता है लङ़का पैदा कर हर बार 
लङ़की पैदा करने की है सख्त मनाही
कहना है उनका कि कैसे जायेंगी ये सारी ब्याही
वंश की तो तूने काट दी बेल
जा खत्म कर दे इसका खेल
माँ हूँ, लेकिन थी मेरी लाचारी
इसलिए फेंक आई, अपनी बिटिया प्यारी
कुत्ते का गला भर गया
लेकिन बयान वो पूरे बोल गया....!
बोला, मैं फिर उल्टा आ गया
दिमाग पर मेरे धुआं सा छा गया
वो लड़की अपना, अंगूठा चूस रही थी
मुझे देखते ही हंसी, जैसे मेरी बाट में जग रही थी
कलेजे पर मैंने भी रख लिया था पत्थर
फिर भी काँप रहा था मैं थर-थर
मैं बोला, अरी बावली, जीकर क्या करेगी
यहाँ दूध नही, हर जगह तेरे लिए जहर है, पीकर क्या करेगी
हम कुत्तों को तो, करते हो बदनाम
परन्तु हमसे भी घिनौने, करते हो काम
जिन्दी लड़की को पेट में मरवाते हो
और खुद को इंसान कहलवाते हो
मेरे मन में, डर कर गयी उसकी मुस्कान
लेकिन मैंने इतना तो लिया था जान
जो समाज इससे नफरत करता है
कन्याहत्या जैसा घिनौना अपराध करता है
वहां से तो इसका जाना अच्छा
इसका तो मर जान अच्छा
तुम लटकाओ मुझे फांसी, चाहे मारो जूत्ते
लेकिन खोज के लाओ, पहले वो इन्सानी कुत्ते
लेकिन खोज के लाओ, पहले वो इन्सानी कुत्ते ..!! Please read and share.

बस मेँ बेठे चौधरी साहब
बीड़ी जलाने
लगे इतने मेँ एक ओरत उठी और
चोधरी साहब
सहाब को थपपड जड़-दिया.!
.
चौधरी साहब ने बड़ी नरमी भरे
लहजे मेँ पूछा रे क्यूँ
मारा
.
औरत- दिखता नहीँ बस मेँ क्या लिखा है ?
धुर्मपान करना मना है।
.
चौघरी- बात तो ठीक है.!
.
थोडी देर बाद औरत अपने बच्चे को दूध
पिलाने लगी...चौधरी साहब एकदम उठे और
ओरत को दो थपपड जड़ दिये.!
.
औरत(गुस्से मैं)- क्यूँ मारा ?
.
चौधरी- दिखता नहीँ बस मैं
क्या लिखा है शरीर का कोई भी अंग
बाहर ना निकाले..!!

एक आदमी की शादी को बीस साल हो गये थे।

उसने कभी पत्नी के हाथों बने खाने की तारीफ
नहीं की।

बाबा ने उसको सलाह दी पत्नी के खाने
की तारीफ करो,कृपा होगी।

बाबा की सलाह असर कर गयी।

घर आते ही उसने खाना खा कर पराठों की जम कर
तारीफ की।

पत्नी ने बेलन उठाया और उसको जी भर कर
ठोंका और बोली

" बीस साल मे कभी मेरे हाथों बने खाने की तारीफ
नहीं की,
आज पडोसन ने पराठे भेज दिये तो तुम्हें

जिंदगी का मजा आ गया।"

हो गयी बाबा की कृपा।
