The Catalina Island is twenty-one miles away from the coast of California, and many people have taken the challenge to swim across it.
On July 4th 1952, Florence Chadwick stepped into the water off Catalina Island to swim across to the California coast. She started well and on course, but later fatigue set in, and the weather became cold.
She persisted, but fifteen hours later, numb and cold, she asked to be taken out of the water.
After she recovered, she was told that she had been pulled out only half a mile away from the coast. She commented that she could have made it, if the fog had not affected her vision and she would have just seen the land.
She promised that this would be the only time that she would ever quit.
She went back to her rigorous training. And two months later she swam that same channel. The same thing happened. The fatigue set in, and the fog obscured her view, but this time she swam with faith and vision of the land in her mind. She knew that somewhere behind the fog was land.
She succeeded and became the first woman to swim the Catalina Channel. She even broke the men's record by two hours.
SUCCESS PRINCIPLES
When you set your goal, keep pressing on even when you are tired, physically and mentally, and even though there are many challenges ahead.
Keep the vision of your goal crystal clear before you and never, never, never… give up!
See the reaching, commit to it, and you will surely see your goal realized.

A red rose
A man stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers to be wired to his mother who lived two hundred miles away.
As he got out of his car he noticed a young girl sitting on the curb sobbing. He asked her what was wrong and she replied, "I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother. But I only have seventy-five cents, and a rose costs two dollars."
The man smiled and said, "Come on in with me. I'll buy you a rose." He bought the little girl her rose and ordered his own mother's flowers.
As they were leaving he offered the girl a ride home. She said, "Yes, please! You can take me to my mother." She directed him to a cemetery, where she placed the rose on a freshly dug grave.
The man returned to the flower shop, canceled the wire order, picked up a bouquet and drove the two hundred miles to his mother's house.

Moral: Don't Send Artificial Loves to your parents. Give them the respect and courtesy they desire. They are your most precious Treasure, Care for them. God Forbid, if they leave this world then one can do nothing but regret

Aasman hum se naaraz hai
Aasman hum se naaraz hai,
Taaren humse dushwar hai,
Woh sab humse jalte hai,
Kyunki Chaand se behtar DOST hamare paas hai...
............ ......... ......... ......... ....
Aisa nahi ki aap ki yaad aati nahi,
Khata sirf itni ki hum batate nahi,
DOSTI aap ki anmol hai hamare liye,
Samjte ho aap isliye jatate nahi.
............ ......... ......... ......... ....
Ishq aur dost meri zindagi ka paigam hai,
Ishq meri ruh dosti mera iman hai,
Ishq pe kardu fana me apni sari zindagi,
Magar dosti par mera ishq bhi qurban hai.
............ ......... ......... ......... ....
Ye Din Yun hi Guzar jaenge,
Shayad Hum Dost yun hi Bichadh jayenge.
NARAZ Na Hona Aap Humari Shararaton Se,
Yahi to wo Pal hai,, Jo KAL YAAD AYENGE.
