     VALUE THE THINGS YOU HAVE A CROW lived in the forest and was absolutely satisfied with  Life. But One day he saw a SWAN . " This SWAN is so WHITE and I am so BLACK , "the CROW thought . "This SWAN must be the HAPPIEST bird in the world ." He expressed his thoughts to the SWAN.

                                                      A Glass of Water and Stress and Anxiety         A Psychologist  paced around a room as spoke about managing stress to an audience .       She raised a glass of water. Everyone expected she would ask the classic question :" Is  the      glass half empty or half full ? " .     But instead , she smiled . " How heavy is the glass of water ? " she asked.    The audience's guesses ranged between 100 and 500 grams .    She replied , "The actual weight of this glass has no real significance . What does matter is  How long I hold the glass . "    If I hold it for a minute , it doesn't feel so heavy . If I hold it for an hour , I'll eventually start cramping up in my arm ."   If I hold it for a whole day , my arm will probably numb up and feel paralyzed .  In each case the glass weight doesn't change , but the longer I hold it , the heavier it gets .  She continues  , &

  When I read the   story sent by one of his friends , immediately I can relate that story to myself and many other moms who are like me. Lot of times in a day I used to feel as if   I am Invisible to my kids or to my husband .I felt like I am just a robot that has no life for itself and I would feel down inside. But after reading the story I don't feel down eventhough I am invisible to them.  I am sure when you read it you will understand it and relate it.                                                               The Invisible Mother It all began to make sense, the blank stares, the lack of response, the way one of the kids will walk into the room while I’m on the phone and ask to be taken to the store.

But , A pilot on the   plane sees the  farmhouse and dreams  of   returning home .   That's Life  !  Enjoy yours…….
