Ever wondered how a HR Manager could write a love letter to his
girlfriend?
Dearest Ms. Aarthi
Sub: Offer of love!
I am very happy to inform you that I have fallen in Love with you since
the 20th of October (Thursday).
With reference to the meeting held
between us on the 19th of Oct. at 1500hrs, I would like to present myself
as a prospective lover. Our love affair would be on probation for a
period of three months and depending on compatibility, would be made
permanent.
Of course, upon completion of probation, there will be continuous on
the job training and performance appraisal schemes leading up to
promotion from lover to spouse. The expenses incurred for coffee and
entertainment would initially be shared equally
between us. Later, based on your
performance, I might take! up a larger share of the expenses. However I
am broadminded enough to be taken care of, on your expense account.
request you to kindly respond within 30 days of receiving this letter,
failing
which, this offer would be cancelled without further notice and
I shall be considering someone else. I would be happy, if you could
forward this letter to your sister / friends, if you do not wish to take
up this offer.Wish you all the best!
Thanking
you in anticipation,
Yours sincerely,
HR Manager

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Freedom of inquiry, Freedom of discussion and freedom of teaching- without these a university cannot exist.

Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths pure theatre.
~ Gail Godwin
Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.

An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you know and what you don't.
~ Anatole France
What we become depends on what we read after all of the professors have finished with us. The greatest university of all is a collection of books.

11).There is always a lecturer in the college who cant speak proper 'english'.
12). Night-out is the second most important tool to ace the exams.
13).The most important tool..the bhramastra..is the 'chit' in which the words can be understood only by the person who wrote them(in most of the cases i.e)

FAMILY

Family & Friends
We all have a cherished garden we tend -
It is planted with love of family and friends.
The memories and dreams we treasure and share
Are like beautiful roses found blooming there.
The comfort and care on which we depend
Is given with love between family and friends.
The sunshine of laughter and rain of a tear
Only make our love grow with each passing year.
We may all be ourselves with no need to pretend
Because of the love of family and friends;
They notice the rainbows and weather the showers.
They overlook weeds and praise all our flowers.
The most valuable thing is the time that we spend
Tending this garden with family and friends.
When counting our blessings, we know from the start
That family and friends come first in our heart.

For You, My Love.
Never will I understand,
Why my love, denies my hand.
What pain, what suffering have you endured?
With my help, can you be cured?
My thoughts, my dreams, you re always there,
When will you see how much I care?
Such little time I ve spent with you,
Enough to know my love is true.
The further you drift away from me,
The more I feel I ll never be free.
Perhaps I should just let you go,
Your love maybe, I should not know?
My love and friendship is always here,
And if you should ever shed a tear,
My arms are here to hold you tight,
For I will always be your light.
My One True Love
Throughout my short existence,
I've found but one true love,
Someone who fits me perfectly,
Just like a rubber glove.
This person is someone I trust,
Someone who's always there,
Someone who I can turn to,
Through darkness and despair.
I've known since I first met her,
I love her oh so much,
I long for her to love me,
And to feel her gentle touch.
She says that she still loves me,
Yet just wants to be my friend,
But I know that I'll still love her,
Until the very end.
I wish that I could have her,
As my very own,
But I guess I had my chance,
And I guess that chance was blown.
This girl I love so very much,
Means more to me than ever,
And I hope deep down inside,
That one day we'll be together.

LOVE
Her Best Friend
She crys but nobody sees her tears
He holds her hand so innocently- cannot realise
It is for him
She sits here now and cries.
When her face looks saddened he replaces her smile-
Without a clue
It is for him she is upset-
For she cannot speak whats true.
Being with him means the world to her
Yet it hurts her beyond words too
For she silently longs to say the words-
"I am in love with you."

"I am in love with you."

MOTHER'S ARE THE SWEETEST.

MOTHER'S ARE THE SWEETEST.
Our mother is the sweetest and
Most delicate of all.
She knows more of paradise
Than angels can recall.
She's not only beautiful
But passionately young,
Playful as a kid, yet wise
As one who has lived long.
Her love is like the rush of life,
A bubbling, laughing spring
That runs through all like liquid light
And makes the mountains sing.
And makes the meadows turn to flower
And trees to choicest fruit.
She is at once the field and bower
In which our hearts take root.
She is at once the sea and shore,
Our freedom and our past.
With her we launch our daring ships
Yet keep the things that last.
The Best of Friends

The Best of Friends
The best of friends,
Can change a frown,
Into a smile,
when you feel down.
The best of friends,
Will understand,
Your little trials,
And lend a hand.
The best of friends,
Will always share,
Your secret dreams,
Because they care.
The best of friends,
Worth more than gold,
Give all the love,
A heart can hold.

A FRIEND LIKE YOU

Everyone should have
a friend like you
You are so much fun to be with
And you are such a good person
You crack me up with laughter
And touch my heart with your kindness
You have a wonderful ability
To know when to offer advice
And when to sit in quiet support
Time after time
You've come to my rescue
And brightend so many
Of my routine days
And time after time
I've realized how fortunate
I am that my life includes you
I really do believe that
Everybody should have a friend like you
But so far it looks like
You are one of a kind!
A Friend Most True
I need to know if you’re my true friend,
will you be by my side until the end?
Can I tell you my secrets deep,
and trust them in your heart you’ll keep?
We are neither of us without our flaws,
can you accept mine as I will yours?
I’ll be a shoulder to cry on when you’re blue,
will you be there for me when I need you?
No matter how busy I will make time for you,
if you are busy will you make time for me too?
I will take your hand and comfort your tears,
will you hold me and soothe my fears?
I will give you joy and many warm smiles,
can we share that even across many miles?
I will not forget what’s important to you,
will you remember what’s important to me too?
With you my most favourite things I’ll share,
If only I know do you truly care?
If you can accept me as I do you,
then I will know you are a friend most true.
