,but when you are  at the top, ridding success-, overconfidence, pride,takes over, affecting relationships,.<br>When one keeps pushing God relents, but for u to face the consequences,<br><br>Its so important to be humble, thoughtful,one needs to remember it.<br><br>A psychologist says , if a kid is not corrected , shown the rules, he could just go on and get more brash, more indiscipline, more violent,.there has to be a check point.<br><br>UNDERSTANDING  AND FORGIVING EACH OTHER I THINK IS EVEN MORE IMPORTANT.<br>Have a nice day<br><BR><BR>]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 12 Oct 2008 13:03:50

cities especially delhi last week, leaves us thinking more.Are we safe to reach back home in one piece??.<br>I was walking across CPark area CP delhi  A week before the blasts on my business visits to delhi, enjoying the serene greenery in the midst of busy delhi and i told myself i hope nobody does any thing here to disturb the peace and hope there were more cops around. but alas a week later ------<br>I  did send some strongly worded comments to HT , but seeing our  more serene rediff  bloggers world of ours, i will dwell here only on how we all as people who love peace and share a loving note , happy and sad times can only pray for better security and understanding .<br>think how many of us blog clubbers may suddenly be not writing a blog ,  others not realising that one could have been a victim of such mindlessness.<br>GOD BLESS ALL AND LOVE YOU.<br><br>Jakes<br><br><BR><BR>]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 21 Sep 2008 09:39:15

fast,<br>rice, wheat -up Rs 10/-<br>milk up Rs 1/-, bread up Rs 2/-<br>petrol up Rs 5/-<br>vat tax up 12% in many states<br><br>any way i could see every body are still hitting the malls and movies after a lull-thats to get over the INFLATION BLUES....I guess""<br><br>but we need to keep our purse strings tight, as a better lifestyle is difficult to give up and expenses only go up, extravaganza will see control-I can see 5 star hotels rather empty these days, Airlines lost 7 lakh  passengers  after June..<br><br>Do not forget flood victims of Bihar and NE-Donate generously ..<br>GOD BLESS.<br><BR><BR>]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 07 Sep 2008 15:01:14 +0530</pubDate><link>http://jakes2000.rediffiland.com/blogs/2008/09/07/inflation.html</link></item><item><title>chinese food
