I heard this story from one of my friends:
"I am forever grateful to the person who successfully insisted that I go on a diet. I was obese and was consistently gaining weight. "Diets aren’t for me," I thought. I tried many of them but didn’t have the willpower. Then someone who barely knew me said to me with total compassion. "Do me a favor. Let me save your life. I’ll speak to you daily and give you encouragement to stick to a healthy diet." This person called me up two and three times a day. When I asked how I could repay this kindness, I was told, "Just be there for someone else like I was there for you."

Yesterday it was decided to try not to horn while driving from Sulthan Bathery to Kalpetta a distance of arond 23 Kms. The whole journey was wonderful. The travel speed had reduced and every scene and the air was enjoyed to the most. By and large its a easy strech of road to try as only a little distance has to be covered within cities. We were doubtful whether it was possible. We understood that not only is it possible but also very enjoyable.
