Talking of forgetfulness, I am reminded of this funny story!
Lara gave birth to her first child when she was nearing 50. Her neighbour Meera was very inquisitive to see
the baby. When she visited, she was asked to wait till the baby got up. Meera waited for two hours, but the
baby did not get up. Since it was getting late, she wanted to see the baby while asleep. But Lara wanted her
to wait till the baby cried. Wonderstruck, Meera asked why the baby should cry! Lara replied, 'Then only
I will KNOW where I have left him!'
Moral: Give birth to babies while young!

If you are having enough money and without any worry to earn. With lot of spare time to spend. With nothing to do.You can be really, really tension free.

Dear Sowmya,
I beg to differ. Please see my comments for 1, 2 and 3.
1. 'Enough money' depends on one's mind set! I have seen very rich persons lament all the time, as if they don' have
enough wealth! Also, those who earn need not have tension, if they are NOT lazy!
2. Spare time should be spent usefully and not just by snoring and watching soaps on TV. In fact, some soaps shown
make many mAmis brood over what will happen in the next episode!!
3. Nothing to do? Does it make anyone happy? :nono: It makes one feel that the life on the earth is useless.
Hence I wrote long back 'பன்முக ஈடுபாட்டை வளர்ப்போம்!'

Priority.
Giving priority to the tasks to be done is very essential for a cool life. What has to be done on a particular day
gets the first priority. For example, usually, I like to log in to our forum, along with my morning coffee. This
should NOT be the routine on ALL days. Saraswathi pooja, Vijaya Dasami and ThiruvONa vratham, which
were on three consecutive days, demanded my morning time. Prayers get the first priority and logging in to
forum comes next! Internet will be ON and OFF on a few days, No need to panic. Our forum posts can wait.

Really?... I am not too sure. Such a person will always wonder " what to do next?" and develop anxiety from that.

Whether it is Yesudass, Balamurali or SPB when it comes to deliver traditional classical numbers for Films, they have given their best.

11. Don't compare your life to those of others. You have no idea what their journey actually looks like.
12. Don't waste time on negative thoughts or things you cannot change. Instead, divert your energy to a positive
moment in the present.
13. Don't exaggerate in your actions, keep yourself in check.
14. You don't have to win EVERY argument. Agree to disagree.
15. Don't waste your energy gossiping. It never ends well.
16. Dream more while you're awake.
17. Envy is a waste of time. You may already have all you need, but if not, envy won't get it for you.
18. Forget past events and don't remind your partners of their past mistakes. It will ruin your present happiness.
The past should stay in the past.
19. Life's too short to hate people. Don't hate in vain.
20. Make peace with your own past, or it will destroy you at present.

21. No one is responsible for your happiness but you.
22. Realize that life is a school and you're here to learn. Problems are just a part of learning, but the lessons
they teach will be with you for life.
23. Smile more. Laugh more.
24. Don't take yourself so seriously, no one else will!
25. Call your family often.
26. Every day give or do something good for another. Even if it's as small as holding a door for someone.
Add to the good in the world.
27. Forgive everyone, for everything. At least try.
28. Spend time with people over 80 and under 6 - it will teach you a lot about what life is really about.
29. Try to make at least three people smile, every day.
30. What other people think of you is none of your concern.

31. Your work won't take care of you when you're sick. Your family and friends will.
Your priorities should reflect that.
32. Do the right thing. It pays off in the long-term.
33. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or brings you enjoyment.
34. When you are angry or upset, seek solitude before taking it out on the people around you.
35. Forgiveness heals all wounds.
36. No matter how good or bad the current situation is, it'll change.
37. The best is yet to come.
38. When you wake up alive in the morning, don't take it for granted - embrace it.
39. The secret of secrets in your heart is that you CAN be happy - so don't be afraid to go for true happiness.
40. Never forget to enjoy the time you have, the moment you are experiencing, and the people who share
these things with you!
