Other - Family & Relationships - 22 July 2006

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door...

Son: "Daddy, may I ask you a question"

Daddy: "Yeah sure, what it is?"

Son: "Dad, how much do you make an hour"

Daddy: "That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?"

Son: "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?"

Daddy: "I make Rs. 500 an hour"

"Oh", the little boy replied, with his head down.

Looking up, he said, "Dad, may I please borrow Rs. 300?"

The father was furious,
"if the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money
to buy a silly toy or other nonsense, then march yourself to your room and go to bed.
Think why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior"

The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.

The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions.

How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?

After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down,
and started to think:

"May be there was something he really needed to buy with that Rs. 300 and he really didn't ask for money very often!"

The man went to the door of little boy's room and opened the door.
"Are you asleep, son?" He asked.
"No daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy.

"I've been thinking, may be I was too hard on you earlier", said the man,
"It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you.
Here's the Rs.300 you asked for"

The little boy sat straight up, smiling "oh thank you dad!" He yelled.

Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled some crippled up notes.
The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.

The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father.

"Why do you want money if you already had some?" the father grumbled.
"Because I didn't have enough, but now I do," the little boy replied.
"Daddy I have Rs. 500 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?
Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you"

I am going crazy, we were head over heels in love, so affectionate and every thing. there was a 4 year age gap between us and i dont think that was an issue. he never mentioned it. All he said to me was that he didn't love me anymore, but he is bad with explaining his feelings so i dont quite believe it. but i havent eaten in 3 days and i can't stop crying. i saw this boy everyday i worked with him before we started dating.. i really want to call him but everyone keeps telling me not to. i guess im pretty pathetic huh? what can i do to keep my mind off of it?

I recently read all of the books by Osho. For me it offered some great insights into being happy and fulfilled in this life. If all living is about is making a living and we never seek out a more spiritual path (looking inward and really connecting with who we are and becoming more aware) how can we ever be truly happy? As a society we are all about being good consumers and working as much as we can and making money so we can have things.. but we never stop to see the real beauty in people.... it is great to be able to appreciate another person in the same way that you could appreciate a beautiful wild animal. We rarely look at each other in awe of the creations that we are and all the potential that lies in each of us.... it's sad....

This is his first girlfriend but he has already let her trap him into setting a wedding date. He doesn't have a say in anything, it's always all about her and what "she" wants. The whole family hates her. She is very abrasive. Not only that, she has STD'S. We can't reason with our son as he thinks his biological clock is running out at only 22. Any ideas?

We live together with my two small children he is not the biological father. We have lived together ever since we met for the first year he travelled a lot because of his job so he was only here on weekends. But the last year he has been here everyday and we are very much in love. Is it true why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? Or does this just require more time because of the complicated situation. He is 5 years younger and has no kids and i am unable to have more because of ovarian cancer that was beyond my control. Could he be just waiting for something better?

A person has many relation in his personal life. Many relations are very close to him. Some are just relations and has no importance in his/ her life. while some are very important for him/her. In my personal life my very important relations were my father, my mother, my step mother, my two brothers, my sister and the important one my love also my causon a pretty girl. Now i m going to disscuss each one seperatly so that you can suggest me and thn tell me who is my own relation and are they right at their place.

1. My Father : He is great person and also a teacher for me. But one and only love was my life i can not think that it is possible to live without my love my causon. When i disscussed about the step for my love. I wanna marry my causon. My father said to me confidently that she will be mine. I was so setisfied that i didnot thought any thing about my step. But in the end when she was going to married with any other person i got to know that my father infact wanted to marry her any where else not with me. Why did he show me the wrong way? Was he right? No i don`t think.
2. My step Mother: She also did as my father did. She was more confident thn my father. But i don`t know why did they did every thing. What they got by giving me tears just tears. Was she right? No. No. No. No. Never
3. My Real Mother: She was ill. She was quite setisfied with my choice and she helped me as she can. Was she right? I think so yea she was....
4. My Sister and My younger Brother: They both helped me as they can. They were with me in my every difficulty. They both are great. So so my younger brother said to me that if i can do anything for you tell me. he is of just 10 years but he tried his best to decrease my depression and care me when i was in great trouble.
5. My elder Brother: He gave me respect. As there is small defference in our ages he got my decision and my choices at every step. He also loved with the same girl from his heart but he told to me that she love with you so you should marry her. He did some wrong things or took some wrong steps whe he was highly depressed but in the end he is good for me as he helped me to get my love.

6. My Love: She was great. She did every thing what i told to her. I am very setisfied to her. But.........(Leave it here)

In the end my love was of any other lucky person. She did not contacted to me for a very long time. I sent e-mail many times a day. But she did not replied to me even did not read my e-mail. Why? I don`t know. Is she angry with me? Why is she angry? Is there any problem with her so that she was unable to read my mails? I don`t know whats going on.

Now i wanna know which relationship is infact good for me. Which relationship can be said my own? And any way to get my love back? I don`t know how is she now? where is she now? Her mobile is switched off? Is she changed her SIM? Whaat is her new cell phone number? Where is she?

What to do??????????? while i just now her e-mail address...

Is it really naive to think that people change in relationships or do they just become more of who they really are?

my husband and I are moving out of state. OK , My brother lives with us and is moving out of state as well. Well that was fine till he won't give us no money for the move on a truck or a roof over our heads. And, he is wanting to move in with us in our new place. We are pissed. what do you guy's think about that? I m realy upset and want to calm down. He did not even help us pack. All he does is drink his beer and play on his computer and take naps after working. what a life.
