http://mastikamela.rediffiland.com/Diary of Manishen-usFriendship is precious!
not only in the shade,
but in the sunshine of life;
and thanks to a benevolent
arrangement of things,
the greater part of life is sunshine.
Of all the blossoms in life's garden,
friendship is the most fragrant
A friend is a gift where
worth cannot be measured
except by the heart
Be full of sympathy toward each other,
loving one another with tender hearts
and humble minds
Friendship is sharing openly,
laughing often,
trusting always,
caring deeply
We can pour our heart out to a friend
knowing that gentle hands will take and sift it,
keep what is worth keeping,
and with a breath of kindness,
blow the rest away
Thank YOU for being my friend

Interviewer said "I shall either ask you ten easy questions or one really difficult question.

Think well before you make up your mind!" The boy thought for a while and said, "my choice is one really difficult question."

"Well, good luck to you, you have made your own choice! Now tell me this. "What comes first, Day or Night?"

The boy was jolted into reality as his admission depends on the correctness of his answer, but he thought for a while and said, "It's the DAY sir!"

"How" the interviewer asked, "Sorry sir, you promised me that you will not ask me a SECOND difficult question!"

He was selected for IIM!
