गुड Friday
The Friday before Easter is the most solemn day for Christians - it is the day on which Jesus Christ died on the cross. This day is known as Good Friday, Holy Friday, Great Friday or Black Friday. As such, Good Friday is a day of mourning, and all the ceremonies and rituals of the day are centered on the feeling of sorrow, at the pain and humiliation that Jesus underwent for the cause of goodness and humanity. The message of Good Friday is that the dictum of "an eye for an eye" cannot work. The way to conquer evil is through good. Similarly, violence can be overcome only by non-violence and hatred by love.
Good Friday is devoted to fasting and prayer, as a way of following the example of Jesus, who stressed the role of prayer in the struggle to conquer evil. The service consists of prayers and readings from the Bible. In many churches, a piece of wood in the shape of the cross is kept. People pray before the cross and kiss it. Jesus is believed to have died on the Cross at three in the afternoon. Therefore, the traditional service lasts for three hours from noon. Some churches concentrate less on prayers, and instead, encourage people to become involved in charitable deeds.
In some churches, mourners wear black and enact the Passion of Christ - scenes of Christ's crucifixion and burial. Many churches cover the cross and the altar with mourning black, and do not light any candles. At other churches, candles are lit, but they are extinguished one by one, with the last one being put out at the moment denoting Jesus' death. The church bells are not rung on Good Friday. Catholic churches follow the tradition of the Stations of the Cross. People pass before paintings depicting the important scenes of the last hours of Jesus' life, reciting prayers and singing hymns.

वर्ल्ड ऐड्स day
World AIDS Day, observed December 1 each year, is dedicated to raising awareness of the AIDS pandemic caused by the spread of HIV infection. It is common to hold memorials to honor persons who have died from HIV/AIDS on this day. Government and health officials also observe the event, often with speeches or forums on the AIDS topics. Since 1995, the President of the United States has made an official proclamation on World AIDS Day. Governments of other nations have followed suit and issued similar announcements.
AIDS has killed more than 25 million people between 1981 and 2007, and an estimated 33 million people worldwide live with HIV as of 2007, making it one of the most destructive epidemics in recorded history. Despite recent, improved access to antiretroviral treatment and care in many regions of the world, the AIDS epidemic claimed an estimated 2 million lives in 2007, of which about 270,000 were children.
World AIDS Day at the World Health Organization was the brainchild of Jonathan Mann, director of the Global Programme on AIDS and personal AIDS proponant (GPA) at the World Health Organization (WHO). The concept of a World AIDS Day was supported at the 1988 World Summit of Ministers of Health on Programmes for AIDS Prevention and by the Fourth International AIDS Conference in 1988. WHO declared December 1, 1988 as the first World AIDS Day. The United Nations General Assembly formally recognized the event in October 1988. Since then, the event has been taken up by governments, international organizations and charities around the world.
The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) became operational in 1996, and it took over the planning and promotion of World AIDS Day. Rather than focus on a single day, UNAIDS created the World AIDS Campaign in 1997 to focus on year-round communications, prevention and education.
In its first two years, the theme of World AIDS Day focused on children and young people. These themes were strongly criticized at the time for ignoring the fact that people of all ages may become infected with HIV and suffer from AIDS. But the themes drew attention to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, helped alleviate some of the stigma surrounding the disease, and helped boost recognition of the problem as a family disease.
In 2004, the World AIDS Campaign became an independent organization.
From its inception until 2004, UNAIDS spearheaded the World AIDS Day campaign, choosing annual themes in consultation with other global health organizations.
As of 2008, each year's World AIDS Day theme is chosen by the World AIDS Campaign's Global Steering Committee after extensive consultation with people, organizations and government agencies involved in the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS. For each World AIDS Day from 2005 through 2010, the theme will be "Stop AIDS. Keep the Promise.", with a yearly sub-theme.[5] This overarching theme is designed to encourage political leaders to keep their commitment to achieve universal access to HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment, care, and support by the year 2010.
This theme is not specific to World AIDS Day, but is used year-round in WAC's efforts to highlight HIV/AIDS awareness within the context of other major global events including the G8 Summit. World AIDS Campaign also conducts "in-country" campaigns throughout the world, like the Student Stop AIDS Campaign, an infection-awareness campaign targeting young people throughout the UK.

कार्तिक Purnima
The Full Moon Day or 15th Purnima day of the Shukla paksha (waxing moon) of the Kartika month is considered very auspicious. The full Moon is usually in Taurus and therefore exalted. At times this festival can take place with the full Moon in Aries- but it represents a strong and auspicious Moon. Usually this is the full Moon in the month of November. It has many names including the Diwali of the Gods and Tripuri Purnima. This day marks the victory of Lord Shiva over the demons Tripuri. The Kartik Purnima festival also coincides with the Jain light festival and Guru Nanak's Birthday.
Tripuri Purnima is one of the most propitious day for worshipping of Shiva, next only to the Maha Shivaratri. According to Mahabharata there were three sons born to the demon Taraka. Taraka was killed by Kartikeya (Mars). Taraka’s sons were called Taraksha, Kamalaksha and Vidyunmali. Demons in Vedic philosophy are very intelligent and strong but they tend to use their knowledge and strength towards the wrong means. These demon sons of Taraka had performed severe penance towards Brahma and won the gift of immense power. Brahma is the creator, The boon that they received, granted them that they would live for a thousand years in three invincible, moving cities known as Tripuri and that they could only be destroyed by one arrow that would merge the three cities into one, and set them to fire. Tri means three and Puri means cities. Tripuri were resplendent, made up of gold, silver and iron respectively. They were built to rival Indra’s grand city. As such powerful demons, the Tripura spent all their time and energy to harass the gods. The power was such that it was difficult to control their destructive tendencies. Their cities never remained in one place long enough therefore it was difficult to destroy them together.
At the end of a thousand years of their negative rule, the gods went to Rudra (Shiva) and asked him to destroy the demon. Rudra had to seek the help of Brahma and the other gods in this task. He danced Tandava, his dance of destruction. He rocked the three cities with his dance (The Tandava of Shiva is said to be like an earthquake); his arrow pierce through the three demons at one time and the fire from his third eye burnt the three cities.
In commemoration of burning and destroying the demons and their cities, this event, which occurred on Kartik Purnima day, is observed annually. While Diwali is the Rama’s (God in a human form) triumph over the demon, Dev Diwali celebrates the Global fight against eveil forces that disturb the harmony of the universe and saving of the whole universe from the destructive intention of those with negative gaendas. While Brahma can create, how people use their creation is up to them. It is Shiva who can save the world when the creation goes wrong. This form of Shiva is known as Tripurantaka for killing the three demon princes and destroying their evil cities.
It is believed that annually on the day of Kartik purnima, the gods descend on earth and reside in the sacred rivers. Ganges and other sacred rivers have elaborate ceremonies on this day. Devotees who bathe in the sacred rivers on these days can also get rid of their negative poisons and receive the blessings from all the Gods of the India.
To celebrate this day we can also cleanse our inner selves. To bathe our mind in the spiritual waters even if we do not live near sacred rivers. Allow the spiritual light to burn away all the questionable traits within. It is not the show of cleaning the outer selves but to rid of our mind and life of its wrong qualities like fear, greed, envy, anger, arrogance and wrong desires and replacing those with forces of love, compassion, generosity, kindness, and light.

सिस्टंस नेवर सेपरातेस तवो heart
for our memories span the miles and in seconds we are there
But whenever I start feeling sad, because I miss you
I remind myself how lucky I am to have someone so special to miss
Sometimes I miss you so much
I just want to rip you out of my dreams and hug you!
The rose that you gave me has faded, and wilted away
But, the love tucked in deep inside, remains in my heart forever
See there's this place in me, where your fingerprints still rest
your kisses still linger, and your whispers softly echo
It's the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me
Will I wait a lonely lifetime? If you want me to, I will
I will love you all my life
and when I die I will still love you, through eternity and beyond
A ring is round, it turns forever
and that's how long we'll be together!
I love the sun for days, the moon for nights
and you forever, I'll surrender my world to you
if that is the only way I could become a part of yours
The beating of my heart is a drum, and it's lost
and it's looking for a rhythm like you
If you love someone, you have to look before you leap
It takes a second to say I love you, but a lifetime to show it
When I miss you, I don't have to go far
I just have to look inside my heart, because that's where I'll find you
I heard someone whisper your name
but when I turned around to see who it was, I was alone
Then I realized that it was my heart telling me that I miss you
If you love me as I love you
nothing but death can part us two
Tears in my eyes
you on my mind
love in my heart
oceans in between
I love you
Close together or far apart
you're forever in my heart
But whenever I start feeling sad, because I miss you
I remind myself how lucky I am to have someone so special to miss
Sometimes I miss you so much
I just want to rip you out of my dreams and hug you!
The rose that you gave me has faded, and wilted away
But, the love tucked in deep inside, remains in my heart forever
See there's this place in me, where your fingerprints still rest
your kisses still linger, and your whispers softly echo
It's the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me
Will I wait a lonely lifetime? If you want me to, I will
I will love you all my life
and when I die I will still love you, through eternity and beyond
A ring is round, it turns forever
and that's how long we'll be together!
I love the sun for days, the moon for nights
and you forever, I'll surrender my world to you
if that is the only way I could become a part of yours
The beating of my heart is a drum, and it's lost
and it's looking for a rhythm like you

हाउ तो क्नोव इफ यू अरे इन love
What, then, is this elusive thing called love that everyone sodesperately needs? Sometimes, we sort of like this girl because she isbeautiful ? Or the girl likes him because he is handsome? But this kindof "Cinderella Syndrome" when the girl is waiting on her PrinceCharming, is not real love. It is better known as "infatuation", andthere is a vast difference between it and real love. Here, we help youto differentiate and find out if you are really in love and not justinfatuation.
Infatuation
Infatuation is a feeling; real love involves a commitment also.Infatuation is just love of emotion. Real love, though, is love ofdevotion. Only the emotions are affected in infatuation, but in reallove both the emotions and the will are involved. Next, a person "fallinto" infatuation, but "grows into" real love. Guys, have you ever seena girl who was so beautiful that you thought you'd faint? This isinfatuation! It is based totally on physical attraction; often youdon't know much in-depth about the person you so-called love. Thus,infatuation is mostly biological. Also remember, never tell a girl youlove her, unless you are willing to marry her.
Then, infatuation is basically selfish where real love is basicallyselfless . Infatuation is more interested in satisfying yourself andthe "feeling" than it is in the other person. Real love is primarilyinterested in the other person. It seeks to give instead of get.. Loveunselfishly seeks the highest good for the other person. Lastly,infatuation is weakened by time and separation where real love isstrengthened by time and separation. This does not mean that there willbe no pain in separation. On the contrary, there is great pain inseparation if you are truly in love.
Love
Now you know what is infatuation, we will go on to discuss about the details of a true love.
Love is patient. The word translated "patient" means to waitpatiently for the fulfillment of expectations. When you have difficultydating this girl and she does not want to come out, if you truly loveher, you will not complain and blame her, you must look at thesituation from her point of view - maybe she is having some problemswhich prevented her from coming out. You must react to it with patienceand understanding. Next, have you ever met someone you liked so muchthat you wanted to push the relationship and make it progress faster?Sure you have! Love, however, is willing to give a relationship time togrow at a natural pace. It does not push but is willing to wait for therelationship to grow at a rate that is satisfactory to both parties.Love is Kind. Love seeks to encourage and build up others. It respectsthe feelings and emotions of others.. It finds its greatestsatisfaction in making others happy.
You can do the following:
1.
2. Give one another things such as gifts and encouragement cards.
3. Compliment one another. Magnify the other party's strength.
4. Listen to one another. Pay close attention to what each of you has to say and make each other feel that what each says is important.
5. Treat one another special in public. Compliment and encourage one another sincerely in the presence of others.
6.
Love is Not Jealous
Jealousy usually indicates aninsecure and immature heart. Love wants the best for others, butjealousy is possessive. Jealous is reflected in the childish statement,"If he is going to talk to her, then he can just forget about me!"Often, one person wants to totally possess the other and to restricther relationships with others.
Love is Not Brag
Love is not a windbag and is notanxious to impress. Often a guy will brag to a girl, trying to impressher so that she will like him. A truly great person, however, does notneed to exalt himself! Others will exalt him.
Love is Not Arrogant
Love is not conceited,boastful, cocky, or stuck-up. Love, instead, is humble and has aservant attitude. Sometimes, a guy may come across to a girl with an "Ican take you or leave you" attitude. His demeanour implies, "You oughtto be thankful that somebody as neat as me is dating you." Of course,this is not love.
Love always covers
This word cover means to passover in silence, to keep confidential. Love is patient with the faultsof others. It doesn't criticize and broadcast to the world the faults ofothers. Love is there even when it knows the other is not perfect.
Love always Perseveres
Love always stands itsground and holds out. It will outlast anything. It will even love inthe face of unreturned love.Real love will last though all sorts oftrials, tribulations and stresses.
Love is Not Provoked
This means that love has along fuse. It does not become irritated and angry. It is not easilyoffended. Love does not seek its own This is the heart of love. Love isother-centered rather than self-centered. Love says, "I love you, I wantto give to you." Selfishness says, "I love you, I want you!"
Love does not act unbecomingly
This means that lovedoes not behave disgracefully, dishourable or indecently. It does notembarrass others by its action. It is characterized by tact andsensitivity. This also means that love should have good manners. Besure to do little things like opening doors for your girl, or offeringher your arm when you walk together.
Love is forgiving
Lastly, this is a MUST for asuccessful love story. If a guy is not willing to forgive and forgetwhen his girlfriend is one hour late, he is not exhibiting love. Lovedoesn't hold grudges when it has been wronged. It doesn't remainresentful. Remember this: Love forgets past failures and sins.

You must react to it with patienceand understanding. Next, have you ever met someone you liked so muchthat you wanted to push the relationship and make it progress faster?Sure you have! Love, however, is willing to give a relationship time togrow at a natural pace. It does not push but is willing to wait for therelationship to grow at a rate that is satisfactory to both parties.Love is Kind. Love seeks to encourage and build up others.

Love is Not Jealous
Jealousy usually indicates aninsecure and immature heart. Love wants the best for others, butjealousy is possessive. Jealous is reflected in the childish statement,"If he is going to talk to her, then he can just forget about me!"Often, one person wants to totally possess the other and to restricther relationships with others.
Love is Not Brag
Love is not a windbag and is notanxious to impress. Often a guy will brag to a girl, trying to impressher so that she will like him. A truly great person, however, does notneed to exalt himself! Others will exalt him.
Love is Not Arrogant
Love is not conceited,boastful, cocky, or stuck-up. Love, instead, is humble and has aservant attitude. Sometimes, a guy may come across to a girl with an "Ican take you or leave you" attitude. His demeanour implies, "You oughtto be thankful that somebody as neat as me is dating you." Of course,this is not love.
Love always covers
This word cover means to passover in silence, to keep confidential. Love is patient with the faultsof others. It doesn't criticize and broadcast to the world the faults ofothers. Love is there even when it knows the other is not perfect.
Love always Perseveres
Love always stands itsground and holds out. It will outlast anything. It will even love inthe face of unreturned love.Real love will last though all sorts oftrials, tribulations and stresses.
Love is Not Provoked
This means that love has along fuse. It does not become irritated and angry. It is not easilyoffended. Love does not seek its own This is the heart of love. Love isother-centered rather than self-centered. Love says, "I love you, I wantto give to you." Selfishness says, "I love you, I want you!"
Love does not act unbecomingly
This means that lovedoes not behave disgracefully, dishourable or indecently. It does notembarrass others by its action. It is characterized by tact andsensitivity. This also means that love should have good manners. Besure to do little things like opening doors for your girl, or offeringher your arm when you walk together.
Love is forgiving
Lastly, this is a MUST for asuccessful love story. If a guy is not willing to forgive and forgetwhen his girlfriend is one hour late, he is not exhibiting love. Lovedoesn't hold grudges when it has been wronged. It doesn't remainresentful. Remember this: Love forgets past failures and sins.
