A Good Creed...

If any little word of ours
Can make one life the brighter;
If any little song of ours
Can make one heart the lighter;
God help us speak that little word,
And take our bit of singing
And drop it in some lonely vale
To set the echoes ringing.

If any little love of ours
Can make one life the sweeter;
If any little care of ours
Can make one step the fleeter;
If any little help may ease
The burden of another;
God give us love and care and strength
To help along each other.

If any little thought of ours
Can make one life the stronger;
If any cheery smile of ours
Can make its brightness longer;
Then let us speak that thought today,
With tender eyes aglowing,
So God may grant some weary one
Shall reap from our glad sowing.

HOW TO STAY YOUNG....Always!!!

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height.
Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.

The grouches pull you down.
(keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches ;) )

An Interesting Quiz for ur Lateral Thinking Abilities --- Think!!!

1. There is a man who lives on the top floor of a very tall building.Everyday he gets the elevator down to the ground floor to leave thebuilding to go to work. Upon returning from work though, he can onlytravel half way up in the lift and has to walk the rest of the wayunless it's raining! Why? (This is probably the best known and mostcelebrated of all lateral thinking puzzles. It is a true classic.Although there are many possible solutions which fit the initialconditions, only the canonical answer is truly satisfying. )

2. A man and his son are in a car accident. The father dies on thescene, but the child is rushed to the hospital. When he arrives thesurgeon says, "I can't operate on this boy, he is my son! " How canthis be?

3. A man is wearing black. Black shoes, socks, trousers, lumper,gloves and balaclava. He is walking down a black street with all thestreet lamps off. A black car is coming towards him with its light offbut somehow manages to stop in time. How did the driver see the man?

4. Why is it better to have round manhole covers than square ones? Thisis logical rather than lateral, but it is a good puzzle that can besolved by lateral thinking techniques. It is supposedly used by a verywell-known software company as an interview question for prospectiveemployees.

5. A man went to a part y and drank some of the punch. He then leftearly. Everyone else at the party who drank the punch subsequently diedof poisoning. Why did the man not die?

6. A man walks into a bar and asks the barman for a glass of water. Thebarman pulls out a gun and points it at the man. The man says 'Thankyou' and walks out. (This puzzle claims to be the best of the genre.It is simple in its! statement, absolutely baffling and yet with acompletely satisfying solution. Most people struggle very hard to solvethis one yet they like the answer when they hear it or have thesatisfaction of figuring it out. )

Spot the Fake Smile & Genuine Smile

Take this excellent Psychology Test for "Spotting Fake Smiles".

Most people are surprisingly bad at spotting fake smiles. One possible explanation for this is that it may be easier for people to get along if they don't always know what others are really feeling.

Although fake smiles often look very similar to genuine smiles, they are actually slightly different, because they are brought about by different muscles, which are controlled by different parts of the brain.

Fake smiles can be performed at will, because the brain signals that create them come from the conscious part of the brain and prompt the zygomaticus major muscles in the cheeks to contract. These are the muscles that pull the corners of the mouth outwards.

Genuine smiles, on the other hand, are generated by the unconscious brain, so are automatic. When people feel pleasure, signals pass through the part of the brain that processes emotion. As well as making the mouth muscles move, the muscles that raise the cheeks - the orbicularis oculi and the pars orbitalis - also contract, making the eyes crease up, and the eyebrows dip slightly.

Lines around the eyes do sometimes appear in intense fake smiles, and the cheeks may bunch up, making it look as if the eyes are contracting and the smile is genuine. But there are a few key signs that distinguish these smiles from real ones. For example, when a smile is genuine, the eye cover fold - the fleshy part of the eye between the eyebrow and the eyelid - moves downwards and the end of the eyebrows dip slightly.

Scientists distinguish between genuine and fake smiles by using a coding system called the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), which was devised by Professor Paul Ekman of the University of California and Dr Wallace V. Friesen of the University of Kentucky.

A Beautiful World...

You live in a beautiful world. The more you appreciate and enjoy that beauty, the more beautiful it becomes.

Beauty is impossible to define and, at the same time, impossible to ignore. You know what it is without having to learn.

Beauty is much more than mere physical appearance. In fact, magnificent beauty can often be found in what appears to be plain and ordinary, when you explore it deeply enough.

Beauty can awe, inspire and astonish. Beauty can energize your spirit in ways that nothing else can.
One of the nicest things you can do for yourself is to give yourself the time and space to simply take in the beauty that is around you. Beauty asks nothing more than to be treasured, and when you let yourself experience it, beauty has much to give.

There is beauty stretching out in all directions. Dive deeply into it, and it will make you more.
