“The great thing in this world is not so much where you stand, as in what direction you are moving.”
My Thoughts:
On which platform you are standing is not of any importance. The train you take determines your destination.

Same is with your life, where you are – is not important, what you do is what determines your destiny.
Quote & Thought for the Day -- Tuesday, 2 Sept '08

"Beware how you take away hope from another human being"
 My Thoughts:
When someone comes to ask to share his/her problems, we might unknowingly transfer our fears to that person. We instead of consoling him might make his situation worse.

This does not mean that you console the other person with false promises. But rather, I mean to say (in context with the above quote) that lets not take away that small light of hope from that guy. Let’s make a conscious effort!
