Thought of the day

Walking is like filling the car tank when it comes to reserve.

Walking is an exercise

It is also like the maintenance we do to our cars.

Absence and presence are a part of life.  Take it easy brother.

Hit the rod when it is hot.  Eat the food when it is hot.

From an Agarbatti packet of 100 sticks, if we use one per day, the sticks will last for 100 days.  But if we use 2 per day, they will last for 50 days. Depending on the usage, the sticks will last.  But in the case of  body, walking and yoga asanas will recoup the last energy.

A walking friend told: He was taking insulin injections..He has started taking Bitter gourd juice.  Now he is neither taking insulin nor he is taking high doses of medicine.  Only one tablet in a day he is taking.  Of course, he is a regular walker and he also does some small exercises.  He told he was putting salt in the juice.  I told him salt is sugar.  When he is not at  insulin stage, he can take a juice of bitter gourd + tomato + cucumber.  For taste, if he wants, he can add 2-3 mint leaves while grinding.

I am happy today because I am here (in Sri Satya Sai Super Speciality Hospital) doing as Seva Dal).  Yesterday I was not happy because I was not here (SSSSSH).
