SOME MAJOR INSPIRATION IS NEEDED

Fateh all (Hey all)
It's been a while since I've been blogging. Mainly because of my GCSE's, then building work at home so I've had no PC and no Internet for 2 months now and now I'm in London for a week. In London I've been in slough at Khalsa Primary School, helping out at there annual Khalsa Camp! (3-7 of August 2008) Last year it was very busy and they turned people away but this year, wow! it was the same.

Amazing, Inspiring, Great Talks, Great People, Great place to be !!

In the near future i will upload some pictures on this page so watch out.

But first i should tell you why it's amazing. I was helping out with the 8 - 10 year olds and some of them can be good, some can be bad but most importantly their brains are like a sponge, you tell them something and providing they were listening they take it in. Which is great. These kids asked alot of great questions and listened to some great lectures. The lectures were on; Identity and Articles of Faith, Sikh Women and Equality, The Secret of Sikhi, The way to live and many more. Even my self as a 16 year old was inspired and wowed by the effort and the knowledge that was buzzing around on these days.

You know what, on second thoughts I can't write how i'm feeling, it's just beyond words, but why don't you come and experience something your selves. For kids, you'll have to wait til next year i'm afraid but you adults and over 16's you may have a blessing yet.

FAMILY

F A M I L Y

I ran into a stranger as he passed by,
'Oh excuse me please' was my reply.

He said, 'Please excuse me too;
I wasn't watching for you.'

We were very polite, this stranger and I.
We went on our way and we said goodbye.

But at home a different story is told,
How we treat our loved ones, young and old.

Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
My son stood beside me very still.

When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.
'Move out of the way,' I said with a frown.

He walked away, his little heart broken.
I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.

While I lay awake in bed,
God's still small voice came to me and said,

'While dealing with a stranger,
common courtesy you use,
but the family you love, you seem to abuse.

Go and look on the kitchen floor,
You'll find some flowers there by the door.

Those are the flowers he brought for you.
He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.

He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,
you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes.'

By this time, I felt very small,
And now my tears began to fall.

I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
'Wake up, little one, wake up,' I said.

'Are these the flowers you picked for me?'
He smiled, 'I found 'em, out by the tree.

I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.
I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue.'

I said, 'Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;
I shouldn't have yelled at you that way.'

He said, 'Oh, Mom, that's okay.
I love you anyway.'


I said, 'Son, I love you too,

and I do like the flowers, especially the blue.'



FAMILY
Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company
that we are working for could easily replace us in
a matter of days.
But the family we left behind will feel the loss
for the rest of their lives.


And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
into work than into our own family,
an unwise investment indeed,
don't you think?
So what is behind the story?



Do you know what the word FAMILY means?
FAMILY = (F)ATHER (A)ND (M)OTHER (I) (L)OVE (Y)OU

End of Parliamentary Year

At the end of the parliamentary year, David Cameron looks back. What a year it has been.

It's been a fascinating time in politics, with local elections in England and Wales, Boris versus Ken in London, by-elections across the UK -- and, of course, the General Election that never was.

Come on PM, Call that election!
