-"today is wonderful, without any problems
and misfortunes and it's a result of my act,
just because of myself,"man says.
-"I'm with you."god says.
next day:
-"today is wonderful, with a little problem,
I'll solve it as soon as possible,"man says.
-"I'm with you."god says.
-"Idon't need anyone."man says.
-"I'mwith you."God says.some days later:
-"today is dark, oh my God!
please help me,"man says.
God says "I have been with you everywhereand
you saw just yourself. but now,
you are alone andyou are calling me...
calm down ,dear.I protect you forver."
Always Believe in Yourself and in Your Dreams

In the pursuit of any dream,
there will be moments
when it seems that
the dream is lost.
it is then that you must have faith
in the person that you are.
believe that you have
the ability overcome
any obstacle standing in your way,
and when your dream comes true,
you will realize then
what a stronger person
you have become.
-Lynn Brown
celever enough!
A man was invited for dinner at a friennd's house.
every time the the host needed something,
he forwarded his request to his wife by calling her "my love"
"darling","sweetheart",etc.his friend looked at himand said,"
that's reallynice after all of these years you've
been married to keep saying those little pet names."
the host said,"well,honestly,I've forgotten her name."
humour

"Mama,"said her little six-year-old daughter,
"please button my dress."
"You will have to do it yourself,dear,"was the reply.
"mother's too lousy."
"oh,dear!"exclaimed the little girl,
"I don't know what I'd do without myself."

the tender time of sand

rain washed the sides of tranquility I was playing with
the wet sands of departure
dreaming of the colorful journeys.Felt like missing something.
In the garden an intimate tablecloth was spread.
something in the middle of the tablecloth,
like a shining perception:
A bunch of grapes
ended all guesses.
mending the silence confused me.
I noticed that there lived the tree.
when there lives the tree one obviously should be.
one should be and follow the track of narration
to the blank text.alas,
O colorful desperation!

Baghdad security crackdown seriously curbs killings of US soldiers
MIL-IRAQ-US SOLDIERS Baghdad security crackdown seriously curbs killings of US soldiers
BAGHDAD, March 14 (KUNA) -- The rate of killings of US troops in Iraq has been on the decline, down by 60 percent, since the launch of the new security measures in Baghdad, according to statistics revealed by the Multi-National Force -Iraq Combined Press Information Centre.Only 17 members of the US military in Iraq have been killed since February 14 till March 13, compared to 42 from January 13 to February 13; the rate was on the decline during the first month of the security crackdown, compared to a month before.Two of the 17 soldiers died at US Baghdad camps of non-combat causes.The remarkable decrease in killings among the US troops came at a time when more of these troops were deployed in the Iraqi capital, especially in districts previously regarded as extremely hazardous for them such as Al-Sadr City, Al-Azamiyah, and Al-Doura.Meanwhile, US attacks on insurgent strongholds north of Baghdad curbed attacks against helicopters. Before the new security plan, many such craft were downed leaving 20 soldiers dead.The US army in Iraq had earlier said that sectarian fighting and violence in Baghdad had dropped sharply, by about 80 percent, since the launch of the plan.The statistics excluded US troops killed in other governorates such as Al-Anbar, Diyala, and Salahiddin.As to the latest human losses, the US army announced Wednesday that two American soldiers had been killed, one in southern Baghdad and the other northeast of the capital.(end) ahh.msaKUNA 141130 Mar 07NNNN
