If one surveys today in the corporate gifting market it is clearly seen that the traditional Indian mithais have been ruled out by the delicious mouthwatering chocolates whose demand is said to grow more in the coming years. Gifting is a simple concept, associated with giving warmth and relationship building. However it gets a few categories attached to it once the word 'corporate' is added to it. Corporate gifting can take place within the company, between clients and suppliers, amongst ...

This is a true story. It was told to me by a guy I met on a Riverboat. That's how I know it's true; who could doubt the veracity of a River Rat? He didn't use any backup singers when he told it to me, but I thought since this is going out on the Internet and all, I should shine it up a bit. I spared no expense to fly these women in from Nashville. They are, I am proud to tell You, the same backup singers who did all that 'Wah-ooo' stuff on C.W. McCall's records. I am laboring under a serious ...

Man's physical body is made up of 5 elements (air, water, wind, fire, earth, space) and the 5 Pranas (Vital Forces). The body has been created from the elements and the mind from the Vital Force. When 2 streams of negative and positive unite electricity manifests, 2 wheels of a cart helps it to move similarly life's wheel too marches ahead. The contribution of both is amazing. The more one dives deep into the visible and invisible designing of the physical body the more its mysterious nature ...

There is a somewhat strange parable in Luke 11. It comes in the middle of some teaching that Jesus is doing in answer to the disciple's request: Lord, teach us to pray. What immediately follows their request is a sample prayer that we now call the Lord's Prayer. In our church we have a time of community prayer every Sunday when we praise God for answers to prayer, and bring our requests to Him as a church. We always conclude that time with the Lord's Prayer. It's a great example of prayer, one ...

Abandon Religion By Punkerslut Why Abandon Religion? It is so commonly believed today that religion is a source of goodness and charity for so many people. It is also believed that to oppose religion is also to oppose the goodness and charity stipulated to be with it. When I ask others to abandon religion, they will reply, "Why would you want to abandon something that has produced so many helpful things?" But I am not asking people to give up the affectionate and tender ways, laced with ...

Answered Prayers Aren't Always What we Expect "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." Matthew 7:7 This verse brought prayer to the forefront of my mind. My life is so very blessed by the Lord. He has given me so much and has answered all of my prayers. I know the Lord will provide for me, when it is His will that I truly seek. When I was pregnant with my son, I prayed to our Father every day that He would give me a happy and healthy ...

MERCURY HAS MANY MEANINGS The planet Mercury is a complex and enigmatic planet that has much more to do with our lives than just "communication", like faxes, emails, answering machines, telephones and media. Mercury in ancient astrology was the Winged Messenger of the Gods. In the Iliad and the Odyssey when someone had a bright idea, instead of a lightbulb appearing over their heads, the Greeks and Romans sketched in an imaginary god, Mercury, who had just arrived on the scene with inspiration ...

Have you ever asked God for something but you don't reallybelieve that you will receive the answer to your prayer? You know that you need to have faith that God will make it happen. You know you need to trust God that He will answer your prayer. But then you begin to doubt that it will happen. After all, "this is the real world"; you say to yourself; "God just doesn't answer every single prayer". You begin to make excuses for God to prepare yourself for the inevitable disappointment: "Well, I ...
