All you want to know about fiscal deficit

India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. The foreign exchange reserves reach a new high every week ($141 billion at last count), inflation has been controlled and nominal interest rates continue to be low.

Yet there are concerns about India's fiscal deficit. The combined deficit of the central and the state governments stands at greater than 10 per cent of the GDP (gross domestic product). The public debt has almost reached four and half years of revenue.

So there are reasons to worry.

Visualise your Goal

The Catalina Island is twenty-one miles away from the coast of California, and many people have taken the challenge to swim across it.

On July 4th 1952, Florence Chadwick stepped into the water off Catalina Island to swim across to the California coast. She started well and on course, but later fatigue set in, and the weather became cold.

She persisted, but fifteen hours later, numb and cold, she asked to be taken out of the water.

After she recovered, she was told that she had been pulled out only half a mile away from the coast. She commented that she could have made it, if the fog had not affected her vision and she would have just seen the land.

She promised that this would be the only time that she would ever quit.

She went back to her rigorous training. And two months later she swam that same channel. The same thing happened. The fatigue set in, and the fog obscured her view, but this time she swam with faith and vision of the land in her mind. She knew that somewhere behind the fog was land.

She succeeded and became the first woman to swim the Catalina Channel. She even broke the men’s record by two hours.

Can you say these three words "I Love you"

I have found that all of us are like "MISER" when it comes to expressing our feelings to others. We are very lavish with our harsh words. More over, these harsh words are mostly bombarded to our near and dear ones, all the time. Seldom pausing to think how that person "feels" when they hear us.

"PEOPLE WE LOVE THE MOST, WE HURT THE MOST"

Isn't it very sad the we restrict "I LOVE YOU" only for our lover, and that too just during the courtship period and after marriage ........ we become too busy. It is not that we do not love them or do not have emotions.

It is just that we do not EXPRESS. We assume that they will understand...

"I love you.", Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling your near and dear ones that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest emotional needs. The need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted.

Everyone needs to hear these three golden words. "I LOVE YOU."

These 3 words can enrich every relationship. Say it, Feel it, enjoy it, Love it and brighten near and dear one's day.

Just like "An apple a day keep the doctors away" similary "I LOVE YOU" a day keeps diseases away.

So friends, let take up this Change, the change that I can express my FEELINGS, not only the -ve's but even the +VE'S specially saying these 3 golden words "I LOVE YOU" to our Parents, Spouse, Children and family members.

Let us not repent later!!! Start Today....

Cold water

A young man went to his grandfather's place to stay for the weekend. He was sitting down to lunch when he noticed that the spoons and forks were encrusted in a thin filmy substance.

He asked his grandfather,"Are you sure you washed it properly?"

"As clean as cold water can get it" was the reply.

So the young man shrugged and started eating.

The next day at breakfast he noticed that the plates were dirty and grimy. It also smelled a bit like dog.

Are you sure you washed it properly?"

"Clean as cold water can get it" was the reply again.

The man, a bit suspicious for his health, looked at his grandfather, than at his plate and started eating.

As he was leaving, his grandfather's dog jumped out in front of him, growled and generally blocked him from going forward.

"Cold water, leave the poor boy alone!" shouted the old man from inside.

The first man approached him and said, "Sir, I don't wish to interfere with your private grief, but this demonstration of pain is more than I've ever seen before. For whom do you mourn so deeply? A child? A parent?"
