How To Find Joy?

1 Create ambiance. For tonight's dinner, put out your best linens, create a centerpiece, or simply light a candle. A festive setting makes for a festive mood.

2 Get outside. Whenever you feel bored, antsy, or gloomy, go for a walk. The fresh air, changing scenery, and exercise will boost your mood.

3 Bow out gracefully. The next time you argue with someone, be the first person to relent and acknowledge the other person's point of view. You'll both be smiling sooner.

4 Pat a pet. Rub a good dog. Scratch a cat. Pets love us unconditionally and relieve our stress.

5 Hit the sack sooner. Go to bed an hour early tonight. Tomorrow, you'll wake up with a brighter outlook.

6 Build someone's future. Volunteer with a local charity. To find a nonprofit or tax-exempt organization near you, visit www.volunteermatch.org.

7 Buy something beautiful. Place a small but exquisite painting, handmade vase, or other piece of art prominently in your home. Admire it often.



8 Take lessons. When you were a kid, did you always want to try horseback riding or sailing? Do you wish you could take up a hobby, like knitting or piano playing? Now is the time to learn how. Hobbies are fun and relieve stress. Look for appropriate schools in the phone book.

9 Add greenery. Adorn your desk and kitchen counter with cut flowers, houseplants, or potted herbs. Plants are proven mood enhancers.

10 Know you're loved. There's no greater joy.

11 Look to the heavens. Whenever you have a chance to relax under the stars, do it. Gazing at the night sky makes you feel more connected to the world.

12 Relish a juicy read. When you start a book and know that it's going to be good, take a moment to enjoy the tingling in your toes.

13 Revel in simplicity. Buy a single rose, tulip, or gerber daisy. Admire the color and shape of the petals and remember how beautiful life can be.

14 Awaken your Inner Julia Child. Create a dish without a recipe from just the ingredients in your pantry. Discover your creative power.

15 Care for yourself. Gently brush your hair or massage your scalp every night before you go to bed. This simple ritual will relax you.

As sun was opening its eyes after long sleep and moon was going to sleep for at least 12 hours.Life was in full swing on the bank of Ganga (river) where all faiths of people came for dipping their nose in morning when Ganga seems as cool as lotus into water mud.
Dinu Kaka: Chanting mantra of some type its sound like Gaytri mantra and also doing his routine work of cleaning shop first.
Customer Rinku:Kaka ,will you give me flowers free as I have no money to give you but really I like that flower.
Dinu kaka:I never give anything without money.
Rinku:For you child emotions have no value?
Dinu Kaka:I only value profit and money.
Rinku:Then it means you can sell anything for money.
Dinu Kaka:Thats my religion.Each work have its means and end and I follow just my means and ends.
Rinku:But,you speak alot of lies for selling your goods and how would you explain all lies you spoke off whole day.You are greedy .
Dinu Kaka:Thats also my work to entice my customer as this require skill.If you are not greedy then you cant get anything in your life because first you have to be greedy for your money,time then you will value those things.We value things when we start realizing that thing is precious.And when we become greedy we start saving that thing because we love or value them and don't want to loose them.
