A lesson in WISDOM.... Value time

A donkey and a tiger were arguing.... 

The donkey said to the tiger, 
"The grass is blue."

Tiger rebutted, "No, grass is green."

Then the discussion between the two became more and more intense. 
Both of them were firm in their own words and refused to give way. 

To end this controversy, both decided to see the Lion, King of Jungle - for a verdict to resolve their argument. 

In the middle of the animal kingdom, sitting on the throne was King lion. 

The donkey started yelling before the tiger could even say anything.... "Your Highness, the grass is blue, isn't it ?" 

The Lion took a look at the donkey and said, "Yes ! The grass is blue."

Donkey : "This tiger does not believe or refuses to believe. 
Annoys me -  he should be punished accordingly ."

The king declared, "Tiger will be banished from this jungle for a week. " 

The Lion King's verdict was heard by the donkey and he was jumping triumphantly with joy in the entire jungle and beating his chest in delight to the amusement of all around. 

The tiger was sentenced to a week's banishment. 

The Tiger paced sadly up to the Lion and asked, "Why, Your Highness ?
Grass is green, isn't it ? " 

Lion looked at the tiger sternly in the eyes and replied, "Yes ! Grass is green." 

Tiger said, "... then why am I sentenced to  banishment ?"

Lion said, "you did not get punished for the grass being blue or green. 
You have been punished for debating with that stupid donkey. 
Brave and intelligent creatures like you have argued with a donkey and come here to get a decision.
You are just wasting my time, your time and everybody's time  !"

Moral of the story.... 

Don't ever debate or argue with donkeys - better leave them in their own world of fantasies.

There are donkeys out there behaving like tigers and there are tigers out there turning into donkeys. 

Know who you REALLY are and your REAL WORTH. 

Catch the drift....?

How to use home loans most effectively for tax benefits

1) Deduction on interest: If you are paying EMIs for a home loan you took to buy a house, the interest component in the EMI can be claimed as deduction. You must be both an owner and a co-borrower (in the loan) to claim tax benefits. This deduction can be claimed starting the year in which the construction of the house is completed. Suppose the construction of your house was completed on August 30, 2014, you can claim deduction for interest for the entire 12 months in financial year 2014-15. So every year a maximum of Rs. 2 lakh can be claimed for a house that you use for your own residence. If your house is rented, the entire interest for the year can be claimed as deduction. The interest payments for the year shall result in a loss under the head 'income from house property'. This loss can be adjusted against in the same year against other heads of income in your income tax return including salary. Therefore, it reduces your total taxable income and the tax you pay thereon. A...

Intellectual battle against ISIS as important as Military: Sheikh Makhtoum of Dubai

The global financial crisis taught the world how profoundly interdependent our economies have become. In today's crisis of extremism, we must recognize that we are just as interdependent for our security, as is clear in the current struggle to defeat ISIS. Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, VP and prime minister of the UAE, ruler of Dubai If we are to prevent ISIS from teaching us this lesson the hard way, we must acknowledge that we cannot extinguish the fires of fanaticism by force alone. The world must unite behind a holistic drive to discredit the ideology that gives extremists their power, and to restore hope and dignity to those whom they would recruit. ISIS certainly can – and will – be defeated militarily by the international coalition that is now assembling and which the UAE is actively supporting. But military containment is only a partial solution. Lasting peace requires three other ingredients: winning the battle of ideas; upgrading weak governance; and ...
