No Surrender

When you believe in yourself, in your personal potential, in your own future,

you have no choice - surrender is not an option. There's nothing to do but continue.

Sometimes you want to give up, but you can't - something deep inside you won't let you.

No white flags, no bailing out, no throwing in the towel for you.

You have to keep going; you must carry on; you just take the next step...and the next...and the next...

Made in India

Was working up a bit seriously when this mail popped up from a friend..instantly lightened me up!

There was a Japanese who went to India for sightseeing.

On the last day, he hired a cab and told the driver to drive to the Airport.During the journey, a Honda drove past the taxi.

Thereupon, the man leaned out of the window excitedly and yelled, "Honda, very fast! Made in Japan!!!

After a while, a Toyota sped past the taxi and again the Japanese man leaned out of the window and yelled, "Toyota, very fast! Made in Japan!"

And then a Mitsubishi sped past the taxi. For the third time, the Japanese leaned out of the window and yelled, "Mitsubishi, very fast! Made in Japan!"

The driver was a little angry, but he kept quiet. And this went on for quite a number of cars.

Finally, the taxi came to the airport. The fare was 800 rupees!!!!

The Japanese exclaimed, "What?? So expensive!"

There upon, the driver yelled back, "Meter, Made in India VERY VERY FAST !!!!!
