မိေကာက္
A candle loses nothing if it is used to light another one.
A long time ago in China , a girl named Li-Li got married & went to live with her husband and mother-in-law. In a very short time, Li-Li found that she couldn't get along with mother-in-law at all. Their personalities were very different, and Li-Li was angered by many of her mother-in-law' s habits. In addition, she criticized Li-Li constantly.
Days passed, and weeks passed. Li-Li and her mother-in-law never stopped arguing and fighting. But what made the situation even worse was that, according to ancient Chinese tradition, Li-Li had to bow to her mother-in-law and obey her every wish. All the anger and unhappiness in the house was causing Li-Li's poor husband great distress.
Finally, Li-Li could not stand her mother-in-law' s bad temper and dictatorship any longer, and she decided to do something about it! Li-Li went to see her father's good friend, Mr. Huang, who sold herbs. She told him the situation and asked if he would give her some poison so that she could solve the problem once and for all.
Mr. Huang thought for a while, and finally said, 'Li-Li, I will help you solve your problem, but you must listen to me and obey what I tell you.'
Li-Li said, 'Yes, Mr. Huang, I will do whatever you tell me to do.'
Mr. Huang went into the back room, and returned in a few minutes with a package of herbs. He told Li-Li,
'You can't use a quick-acting poison to get rid of your mother-in-law, because that would cause people to become suspicious. Therefore, I have given you a number of herbs that will slowly build up poison in her body. Every other day prepare some delicious meal and put a little of these herbs in her serving. Now, in order to make sure that nobody suspect you, when she dies, you must be very careful to be actively friendly towards her. 'Don't argue with her, obey her every wish, and treat her like a queen.'
Li-Li was so happy. She thanked Mr. Huang and hurried home to start her plot of murdering her mother-in-law.
Weeks went by, and months went by, and every other day, Li-Li served the specially treated food to her mother-in-law. . She remembered what Mr. Huang had said about avoiding suspicion, so she controlled her temper, obeyed her mother-in-law, and treated her like her own mother.
After six months had passed, the whole household had changed. Li-Li had practiced controlling her temper so much that she found that she almost never got mad or upset. She hadn't had an argument with her mother-in-law in six months because she now seemed much kinder and easier to get along with.
The mother-in-law' s attitude toward Li-Li changed, and she began to love Li-Li like her own daughter. She kept telling friends and relatives that Li-Li was the best daughter-in- law one could ever find. Li-Li and her mother-in-law were now treating each other like a real mother and daughter. Li-Li's husband was very happy to see what was happening.
One day, Li-Li came to see Mr. Huang and asked for his help again She said, 'Dear Mr. Huang, please help me to keep the poison from killing my mother-in-law. She's changed into such a nice woman, and I love her like my own mother. I do not want her to die because of the poison I gave her.'
Mr. Huang smiled and nodded his head. 'Li-Li, there's nothing to worry about. I never gave you any poison. The herbs I gave you were vitamins to improve her health. The only poison was in your mind and your attitude toward her, but that has been all washed away by the love which you gave to her.'
There is a wise Chinese saying: 'The person who loves others will also be loved in return.' God might be trying to work in another person's life through you.
'A candle loses nothing if it is used to light another one. And let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we shall reap if we do not grow weary - Paul The Apostle
LIVE well .... LAUGH often ... LOVE much.
Days passed, and weeks passed. Li-Li and her mother-in-law never stopped arguing and fighting. But what made the situation even worse was that, according to ancient Chinese tradition, Li-Li had to bow to her mother-in-law and obey her every wish. All the anger and unhappiness in the house was causing Li-Li's poor husband great distress.
Finally, Li-Li could not stand her mother-in-law' s bad temper and dictatorship any longer, and she decided to do something about it! Li-Li went to see her father's good friend, Mr. Huang, who sold herbs. She told him the situation and asked if he would give her some poison so that she could solve the problem once and for all.
Mr. Huang thought for a while, and finally said, 'Li-Li, I will help you solve your problem, but you must listen to me and obey what I tell you.'
Li-Li said, 'Yes, Mr. Huang, I will do whatever you tell me to do.'
Mr. Huang went into the back room, and returned in a few minutes with a package of herbs. He told Li-Li,
'You can't use a quick-acting poison to get rid of your mother-in-law, because that would cause people to become suspicious. Therefore, I have given you a number of herbs that will slowly build up poison in her body. Every other day prepare some delicious meal and put a little of these herbs in her serving. Now, in order to make sure that nobody suspect you, when she dies, you must be very careful to be actively friendly towards her. 'Don't argue with her, obey her every wish, and treat her like a queen.'

ွSuch Man
There was a man who had large personal and financial problems. He
prayed and prayed begging God to remove his difficulties and he
made a promise. “If all my problems are removed, I will sell my
house and donate all the money to charity.” The very next day,
things started to turn around. For the entire following week, all
sorts of little miracles happened and within two weeks, his entire
situation was reversed, and he remembered his prayer and promise.
This man liked to paint as a hobby, even though his paintings were
not very good, he enjoyed painting for fun. So in light of his
promise, he put his very valuable house for sale for $100 under
condition that the purchaser must also buy one of his paintings for
$1,000,000.
The house and painting both sold, and $100 was donated to charity.
Having honoured his promise, the man slept well that night.

Empty First
A university professor with multiple PhD’s and extensive studies
went to Japan and sought out a Zen master who was known to
have great knowledge of the sublime.
The Master welcomed the Professor and invited him in, offering
tea. As the Master was preparing the tea, the Professor listed all
his degrees and experiences and studies, going on and on showing
how much he knows. The Master stayed quiet all this time,
attentively preparing the tea and listening to the monologue.
As the professor kept talking, the master poured the tea, filling
the cup, and kept on pouring. When the professor noticed the tea
overflowing from the cup he cried out; “What kind of master are
you, can’t you see the cup is full?”
The master replied; “As the cup is full, putting more tea in is only
a waste. It must be empty first to receive and hold what it gets.”

Tongue-twister
A tongue-twister is a phrase that is designed to be difficult to articulate properly. Tongue-twisters may rely on similar but distinct phonemes, unfamiliar constructs in loanwords, or other features of a language. Many tongue-twisters use a combination of alliteration and rhyme. They have two or three sequences of sounds, then the same sequences of sounds with some sounds exchanged. For example, She sells sea shells on the sea shore. The shells that she sells are sea shells I'm sure.
- If you understand, say "understand”. If you don't understand, say “don’t understand". But if you understand and say "don't understand". How do I understand that you understand? Understand!
- I wish to wish the wish you wish to wish, but if you wish the wish the witch wishes, I won't wish the wish you wish to wish.
- Sounding by sound is a sound method of sounding sounds.
- A sailor went to sea to see, what he could see. And all he could see was sea, sea, sea.
- Purple Paper People, Purple Paper People, Purple Paper People.
- If two witches were watching two watches, which witch would watch which watch?
- I thought a thought but the thought I thought wasn't the thought I thought. I thought if the thought I thought had been the thought I thought, I wouldn't have thought so much.
- Once a fellow met a fellow in a field of beans, said a fellow to a fellow. If a fellow asks a fellow, Can a fellow tell a fellow what a fellow means?
- Mr. Inside went over to see Mr. Outside. Mr. Inside stood outside and called to Mr. Outside inside.
- Mr. Outside answered Mr. Inside from inside and Told Mr. Inside to come inside. Mr. Inside said "NO", and told Mr. Outside to come outside.
- Mr. Outside and Mr. Inside argued from inside and outside about going outside or coming inside. Finally, Mr. Outside coaxed Mr. Inside to come inside then both Mr. Outside and Mr. Inside went outside to the riverside.
- She sells sea shells on the sea shore. The shells that she sells are sea shells I'm sure.
The owner of the inside inn was inside his inside inn with his inside outside his inside inn. - If one doctor doctors another doctor does the doctor who doctors the doctor, doctors the doctor the way the doctor he is doctoring doctors? Or does the doctor doctors the way the doctor who doctors doctor?
- When a doctor falls ill another doctor doctors the doctor. Does the doctor doctoring the doctor doctors the doctor in his own way or does the doctor doctoring the doctor doctors the doctor in the doctor's way.
- We surely shall see the sun shine shortly. Whether the weather be fine, or whether the weather be not, Whether the weather be cold Or whether the weather be hot, We'll weather the weather Whatever the weather, Whether we like it or not.
Whether the weather is hot or whether the weather is cold. Whether the weather is either or not, It is whether we like it or not. - Nine nice night nurses nursing nicely.
- A flea and a fly in a flue Said the fly "Oh what should we do", said the flea. “Let us fly”, said the fly to the flea. So they flew through a flaw in the flue.
If you tell Tom to tell a tongue-twister his tongue will be twisted as tongue-twister twists tongues. - Mr. See owned a saw and Mr. Soar owned a seesaw. Now See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw Before Soar saw See, Which made Soar sore. Had Soar seen See's saw Before See sawed Soar's seesaw; See's saw would not have sawed Soar's seesaw. So See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw. But it was sad to see Soar so sore just because See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw.
Ohhh, why do you put your tongue out now? Aww ...ha ha ha.. Keep it on Keep it on......

Warren Buffet’s 10 tips for 2009
Friends - We begin this New Year with dampened enthusiasm and dented optimism. Our happiness is diluted and our peace is threatened by the financial illness that has infected our families, organizations and nations. Everyone is desperate to find a remedy that will cure their financial illness and help them recover their financial health. They expect the financial experts to provide them with remedies, forgetting the fact that it is these experts who created this financial mess.
Every new year, I adopt a couple of old maxims as my beacons to guide my future. This self-prescribed therapy has ensured that with each passing year, I grow wiser and not older. This year, I invite you to tap into the financial wisdom of our elders along with me, and become financially wiser.
1. Hard work: All hard work bring a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty.
2. Laziness: A sleeping lobster is carried away by the water current.
3. Earnings: Never depend on a single source of income. [ At least make your Investments get you second earning
4. Spending: If you buy things you don't need, you'll soon sell things you need.
5. Savings: Don't save what is left after spending; Spend what is left after saving.
6. Borrowings: The borrower becomes the lender's slave.
7. Accounting: It's no use carrying an umbrella, if your shoes are leaking.
8. Auditing: Beware of little expenses; A small leak can sink a large ship.
9. Risk-taking: Never test the depth of the river with both feet. [ Have an alternate plan ready ] 10. Investment: Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
I’m certain that those who have already been practicing these principles remain financially healthy. I’m equally confident that those who resolve to start practicing these principles will quickly regain their financial health.
Let us become wiser and lead a happy, healthy, prosperous and peaceful life.
