A grandfather was talking to his grandson about how he felt.............
He said, " I feel as if i have two wolves fighting in my heart. "
One wolf is the vengeful, angry, violent one. The other wolf is the loving,
compassionate one . " Both are equally strong!!!!
The grandson asked him , " Then which wolf will win the fight in your heart ? "
The grandfather answered , " THE ONE I FEED !! "

Satan called a worldwide convention of demons.
In his opening address he said, "We can't keep people from going to pray."
"We can't keep them from reading their holy books and knowing the truth."
"We can't even keep them from forming an intimate relationship with their
GOD."
"Once they gain that connection with GOD, our power over them is broken."
"So let them go to their prayers; let them have their covered dish dinners,
BUT , he thundered, "Steal their time, so they don't have time to develop a
relationship with GOD.."
"This is what I want you to do," said the devil explaining his modus operendi:
"Distract them from gaining hold of their GOD and maintaining that vital
connection throughout their day!"
"How shall we do this?!!" his demons shouted, confused.
"Keep them busy in the non-essentials of life and invent innumerable
schemes to occupy their minds," he answered.
"Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow."
"Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours and the husbands to work
6-7 days each week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty
lifestyles."
"Keep them from spending time with their children."
"Keep them from spending time together"
"As their families fragment, soon, their homes will offer no escape from the
pressures of work!"
"Over-stimulate their minds so that they cannot hear that still, small voice."
"Entice them to play the radio or cassette player whenever they drive."
"To keep the TV, VCR, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their home
and see to it that every store and restaurant in the world plays non-
religeous music constantly."
"This will jam their minds and break that union with God."
"Fill the coffee tables with magazines and newspapers."
"Pound their minds with the news 24 hours a day."
"Invade their driving moments with billboards."
"Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, mail order catalogs, sweepstakes, and
every kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products, services
and false hopes.."
"Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines and TV so their husbands will believe that outward beauty is what's important, and they'll become dissatisfied with their wives. "
"Keep the wives too tired to love their husbands at night."
"Give them headaches too! "
"If they don't give their husbands the love they need, they will begin to
look elsewhere."
"That will fragment their families even more quickly!"
"Give them distractions to distract them from teaching their children the
real meaning of life."
"Even in their recreation, let them be excessive."
"Have them return from their recreation exhausted."
"Keep them too busy to go out in nature and reflect on God's creation.
Send them to amusement parks, sporting events, plays, concerts, and
movies instead."
"Keep them busy, busy, busy!BUSY is the key word"
"And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and
small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences. "
"Crowd their lives with ONLY thinking about so many good causes they have no time to seek power from GOD."
"Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health
and family for the good of the cause."
"It will work!"
"It will work!"
His demons enquired," Will it also work with people not interested in Music, movies, food, drinks etc.!!! Master maybe a few even not interested in sex. It may not work with them, Master!!!!"
SATAN answered with a smile," I have a unique plan for such people. I am planning to offer them another addiction from which they shall not be able to come out," My dears I offer them the STOCK MARKET!!!!! and by the time they get comfortable Commodities and Forex shall follow. And trust me they shall be the worst of the lot!!!!!!
It was quite a plan!
The demons went eagerly to their assignments causing people everywhere to get busier and more rushed, going here and there. And Satan as promised offered the Stock, Commodities and Forex market.
AND this left humankind.......................
Having little time for their God or their families.
Having no time to tell others about the power of GOD to change lives.
I guess the question is, has the Satan and his devils been successful in his schemes?
Let us be the judge!!!!!
Just introspect......
For us Does "BUSY" mean: B-eing U-nder S-atan's Y-oke?

Hi all
Never expected i will come across such a thread on traderji.
its good to read, we have to be practical and follower of good morale.
people on this board and thread are the most educated, smart, cunning but they all are also human-humble-kind inside.
if we forget ego, pride, dignity and replace with kindness, love and sharing
half of the world problems will be solved.

The Fourth Doll
A sage presented a prince with a set of three small dolls. The prince was not amused.
"Am I a girl that you give me dolls?" he asked.
"This is a gift for a future king," said the man. "If you look carefully, you'll see a hole in the ear of each doll."
"So?"
The sage handed him a piece of string.
"Pass it through each doll," he said.
Intrigued, the prince picked up the first doll and put the string into the ear.
It came out from the other ear.
"This is one type of person," said the man. "Whatever you tell him, comes out from the other ear. He doesn't retain anything."
The prince put the string into the second doll. It came out from the mouth.
"This is the second type of person," said the man. "Whatever you tell him, he tells everybody else."
The prince picked up the third doll and repeated the process. The string did not reappear from anywhere else.
"This is the third type of person," said the man. "Whatever you tell him is locked up within him. It never comes out."
"What is the best type of person?" asked the prince.
The man handed him a fourth doll, in answer.
When the prince put the string into the doll, it came out from the other ear.
"Do it again," said the sage.
The prince repeated the process.
This time the string came out from the mouth.
When he put the string in a third time, it did not come out at all.
"This is the best type of person," said the sage.
"To be trustworthy, a man must know when not to listen, when to remain silent and when to speak out."
A wise person knows when to listen and when not to, when to remain silent and when to speak.
Let us ask ourselves :
What about me? Which kind of doll do I represent?
If you happen to fall in the first three category, have you made any attempt to shift yourself to the fourth category? Start it NOW!!
Well. this story also makes us more conscious about being sensitive to different situations and people.
Diplomacy in life is cooked through the oven of sensitivity and awareness. Being sensitive and aware to people and situation makes us trustworthy in life.
I am sure that is what all of us expect from another human beings so let us begin from the 'self'.
Wishing you all blessings of life.
