I believe that love is the highest form of friendship, so my soul mate would have to be my friend first, I can't imagine falling in love with a total stranger.&lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;I believe I can read faces n peoples emotions, so someone with an adorable smile would really take my heart... someone with a smile that would make me smile back. very few people can really melt your heart with a smile. and you can't help falling in love with..&lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;I don't know what else..

      <title>My Favourite Quotes</title>
      <link>/blog/5/life-philosophy/40/my-favourite-quotes.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;About Relations:&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;"Relationships--of all kinds--are like sand held in your hand. Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold onto some of it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly, and the relationship slips away and is lost."&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;About Love:&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;BR&gt;"To love someone deeply gives you strength. Being loved by someone deeply gives you courage."&lt;BR&gt;"Love without reason lasts the longest."&lt;BR&gt;"Love is like playing the piano. First you must learn to play by the rules, then you must forget the rules and play from your heart."&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;About Marriage:&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;BR&gt;"Should be a commitment of understanding, trust and love between two people not a compromise."&lt;BR&gt;&lt;FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=1&gt;&lt;FONT color=#4e4f80&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;P&lt;/B&gt;lease do not form any opinions whatsoever about me, my thoughts or my actions from the following quotes.

Sometimes, it's very hard to stop.&lt;BR&gt;"If you judge people, you have no time to understand and love them."&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;About Computers:&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;BR&gt;"Me?

      <title>My Favourite Quotes</title>
      <link>/blog/5/life-philosophy/43/my-favourite-quotes.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;"Yes, I know I sound funny saying this, but I have yet again come to the conclusion that dedicated, concentrated hard work is the only way to success. Giving in to stray thoughts, to immediate desires and to the world of dreams only leads to disaster." &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR&gt;"We must support friends even in their mistakes; however, it must be the friend and not the mistake we are supporting. " &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"Often, we do not learn from our mistakes, but from the consequences of those mistakes. Sadly, sometimes consequences are fatal. We should try to learn from the mistakes. " &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR&gt;"M.K.Gandhi is said to have displayed three monkey images in his house. One kept its eyes covered with its' hands (representing See no evil). The other kept its covered its ears covered (Hear no evil). And the last one kept its mouth covered (Speak no evil). I find something missing there. How about a "Do no evil"? Without it, the monkeys could be saying "Close your eyes, ears and mouth (shut all your senses) and do evil."" &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=1&gt;&lt;FONT color=#4e4f80&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;BR&gt;P&lt;/B&gt;lease do not form any opinions whatsoever about me, my thoughts or my actions from the following quotes.

      <title>Meaning of Love 4 innocent minds</title>
      <link>/blog/5/life-philosophy/52/meaning-of-love-4-innocent-minds.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;Since a very long time ago, people have searched for the meaning of love. But even the great philosophers, with their profound definitions, could not fully touch its true essence. In a survey of 4-8 year olds, kids share their views on love. But what do little kids know about love? Read on and be surprised that despite their young and innocent minds, kids already have a simple but deep grasp of that four-letter word. &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is that first feeling you feel before all the bad stuff gets in the way." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"When someone loves you, the way she says your name is different. You know that your name is safe in her mouth." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your french fries without making them give you any of theirs." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is when someone hurts you. And you get so mad but you don't yell at him because you know it would hurt his feelings." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My mommy and daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss but they look happy and sometimes they dance in the kitchen while kissing." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate."&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"When you tell someone something bad about yourself and you're scared she won't love you anymore. But then you get surprised because not only does she still love you, she loves you even more." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"There are 2 kinds of love. Our love. God's love. But God makes both kinds of them." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they've know each other so well."&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"Love is-if you hold hands and sit beside each other in the cafeteria. That means you're in love. Otherwise, you can sit across from each other and be okay." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night."&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"Love is when mommy sees daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"If you want somebody to love you, then just be yourself. Some people try to act like somebody else, somebody the boy likes better. I think the boy isn't being very good if he does this to you and you should just find a nicer boy." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day" &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"When you're born and see your mommy for the first time. &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is what makes people hide in the dark corners of movie theaters." &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot.Because People forget a lot." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"Love is when mommy sees daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"You never have to be lonely. There's always somebody to love, even if it's just a squirrel or a kitten." &lt;BR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR&gt;"You can break love, but it won't die Mrs Universe."&lt;/P&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Blog Posted on: &lt;b&gt;Tuesday, May 15, 2007 at 04:15-PM&lt;/b&gt;</description>

      <title>Decide how you are going to live</title>
      <link>/blog/5/life-philosophy/72/decide-how-you-are-going-to-live.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Its&amp;nbsp; a Story Read It&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes. Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her now what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she sked me softly, why? I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; I had lost my heart to a lovely girl called Dew. I didn't love her anymore. I just pitied her! With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, 30% shares of my company and the car. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Dew so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Dew. When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again. In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a months time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken marriage. This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day. She requested that everyday for the month's duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I told Dew about my wife s divorce conditions. She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully. My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mummy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office. On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest.. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her. On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me. On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Dew about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily. Suddenly it hit me; she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head. Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mum out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day. But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life acked intimacy. I drove to office... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind... I walked upstairs. Dew opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Dew, I do not want the divorce nymore. She looked at me, astonished. Then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Dew, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other any more. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death does us apart. Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away. At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a ouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote: "I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart" The small details of our lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, the property, the bank balance that matters. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage! &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Relationships are made not to exploit, not to be broken. We teach some by what we say We teach some more by what we do But we teach most by what we are - Unknown&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;You don't get to choose how you are going to die, or when, but, you can &lt;BR&gt;decide how you are going to live, here and now.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Blog Posted on: &lt;b&gt;Sunday, September 16, 2007 at 01:20-PM&lt;/b&gt;</description>

      <title>Ten Characteristics of Great Men</title>
      <link>/blog/5/life-philosophy/94/ten-characteristics-of-great-men.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;What is a great man?&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;I've observed and researched the lives of a number of men, those in our past and those currently alive, throughout the world and in my own life and, while there are many qualities of a great men, have identified ten characteristics common in great men.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Ten Characteristics of Great Men&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;1. Great men have their priorities in line. They know what is truly important in life, and live accordingly.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;2. Great men are tender with those in need of tenderness. They are kind to the elderly, children, and those with disabilities. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;3. Great men respect and honor women. They don't objectify, degrade, or demean them.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;4. Great men participate in the community. They may spend time volunteering, working for a cause, or being involved with a charity.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;5. Great men are honest, and have a sense of morality, integrity, and decency. They have an internal awareness of what is or is not appropriate, good, right, or decent.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;6. Great men have a sense of purpose. They do not waste inordinate amounts of time in from of the TV or playing video games. They can balance fun and relaxation with work and productivity.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;7. Great men are continually expanding their minds. They do not think they know it all and are open to new ideas and insights.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;8. Great men have a healthy sense of self. They are confident and secure while maintaining a sense of humility.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;9. Great men help and assist others. Whether in their place of employment, in their daily lives, or in the greater world at large, they have a sense of giving back.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;10. Great men are in touch with their feelings, emotions, concerns, and even shortcomings. They don't feel a need for pretense or power. They can cry, have compassion, and acknowledge mistakes. They can love and be loved.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Note, a great man is not measured by the amount of money he has, the kind of car he drives, the size of his biceps, or outward appearance.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;A great man reflects his greatness in his everyday life.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;From Web&lt;/P&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Blog Posted on: &lt;b&gt;Thursday, February 19, 2009 at 04:29-PM&lt;/b&gt;</description>

      <title> Characteristics of Good People</title>
      <link>/blog/5/life-philosophy/95/characteristics-of-good-people.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;How to know that a person is really good person since all that glitters is not gold. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Always remember that it's not easy to find a good person, unless and until you are very lucky. However to increase the chance of finding a good person, I list down some of the characteristics which are commonly observed in any good person:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;OL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They generally are short tempered, which is quite against their nature.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They don't try to hurt anyone but still hurt everybody unknowingly.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They are generally less successful.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They are reluctant to give any advice but when they give it eats up your whole lot of time.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They will always try to prove that they are not bad, but always fail to do so.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They appear quite rude but in reality they are quite shy.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They generally try to become bad, always fail to become. Even if they become, they are the persons who get most of the punishment.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They generally get a lot of punishment.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They generally don't try to help you because they are afraid of getting exploited.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They are the people, who have maximum tension.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;They are the people, which will appear to change a lot after a passage of time but in reality they remain same&lt;BR&gt;They can't speak lies.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;So, in short mostly people with less positive personality are tend to be more good then people with positive personality.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/OL&gt;&lt;P&gt;This is because people with less positive personality tend to hide their negative persona. They show their negative persona only to those person whom they feel are weak enough to have any impact on their image.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Now, the negative aspect of such people is very easily deciphered by good people and they feel that everyone favours the negative persona (they forget that bad people don't show such persona to everyone)and then they try to inculcate such persona in them. This results in all the above characterstics mentioned above.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;From www.socyberty.com&lt;/P&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Blog Posted on: &lt;b&gt;Thursday, February 19, 2009 at 04:29-PM&lt;/b&gt;</description>
