The 7 Most Beautiful-But-Deadly Flowers in the World

Beautiful as they may be, some flowers are much more than they appear to be. Believe it or not, these seemingly harmless plants can really ruin your vacation. To help you know what flowers to stay away from on your trips, with a list of the worlds most attractive but dangerous flowers:

7. Daphne

Also known as lady laurel or paradise plant, Daphne is a 1-1.5 meters tall shrub, usually grown for its scented flowers. All parts of the plant are poisonous, but the greatest concentrations are in the sap and berries.

Daphne contains mezerine and daphnin, two powerful toxins that cause stomach aches, headaches, diarrhea, delirium and convulsions. If Daphne berries are consumed, the victim might fall into a coma and even die.

6. Lily of the Valley

Just like the Daphne, Lily of the Valley may look beautiful and harmless, but it is entirely poisonous. Eating one or two of the plants bell-shaped flowers wont hurt you very much, especially if youre an adult.

Eaten in large quantities, Lily of the Valley causes pain in the mouth, nausea, vomiting, cramps and diarrhea. People with heart conditions should be most careful since the toxins cause the heartbeats to slow down or become irregular.

5. Belladonna

Known as one of the most poisonous plants in the Western hemisphere, Belladonna contains potentially lethal tropane alkaloids. The entire plant is harmful, but its good-looking berries pose the most danger, especially to kids.

The symptoms of Belladona, or Deadly Nightshade poisoning are dilated pupils, blurred vision, headaches, hallucinations, delirium and convulsions. Atropine, the toxin contained by Belladona, can kill a person by disrupting the nervous systems ability to regulate breathing, sweating and heart rate.

4. Angels Trumpet

Despite its name, theres something very evil about this plant. The toxins it contains can be fatal to humans and a number of animals. Known as a powerful hallucinogen, Angels Trumpet should not be used for recreational purposes, since the risk of an overdose is very high.

Angels Trumpet plants contain a variable amount of tropane alkaloids, like atropine and scopolamine, and it is used in shamanic rituals by indigenous tribes in western Amazonia.

3. Rhododendron

Rhododendron contains andromedatoxin which causes nausea, severe pains, paralysis and even death. Azaleas, members of the same plant-family as rhododendron, are also poisonous.

2. Oleander

Oleander is known as one of the most poisonous plants on Earth, often used in suicidal cases around southern India. The numerous toxic compounds contained in the entire Oleander plant, including oleandrin and neriine, affect the nervous, digestive and cardiovascular systems, all at the same time.

Oleander poisoning leads to drowsiness, tremors, seizures, coma and even death. The plants sap causes skin irritation and severe eye inflammation.

1. Autumn crocus

One of the most endangered plants in the world, Autumn crocus is also probably the most poisonous. It contains colchicine, a deadly drug used effectively in the treatment for gout. Unlike other toxins found in the flowers above, colchicine, an arsenic-like poison has no antidote.

Autumn crocus poisoning leads to reduced blood pressure and cardiac arrest.

Please never abandon your loved ones..

This is a true story that happened in Japan . In order to renovate the house, someone in Japan breaks open the wall.

Japanese houses normally have a hollow space between the wooden walls. When tearing down the walls, he found that there was a lizard stuck there because a nail from outside hammered into one of its feet.

He sees this, feels pity, and at the same time curious, as when he checked the nail, it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was! First built.

What happened?

The lizard has survived in such position for 10 years! In a dark wall partition for 10 years without moving, it is impossible and mind boggling.
Then he wondered how this lizard survived for 10 years!

Without moving a single step–since its foot was nailed! So he stopped his work and observed the lizard, what it has been doing, and what and how it has been eating.

Later, not knowing from where it came appears another lizard, with food in its mouth. Ah! He was stunned and touched deeply. For the lizard that was stuck by nail, another lizard has been feeding it for the past 10 years…

Imagine? It has been doing that untiringly for 10 long years, without giving up hope on its partner.

o Think, will you do that to your Mom, who, brought you after a big struggle of nine long months?

Or at least to your Friends?

Imagine what a small creature can do that a creature blessed with a brilliant mind can’t.As information and communication technology advances, our access to information becomes faster and faster.

But the distance between human beings . . . is it getting closer as well . . . ?
Please never abandon your loved ones..

PRAYER

2010-09-29T10:43:36Z

A Prayer

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ…

The Father of compassion and the God of all comfort

Who comforts us in all our trouble so that we can comfort those in any trouble with comfort we ourselves

have received from God…

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted

And saves those who are crushed in spirit

The Lord redeems His servants

No one will be condemned who takes refuge in his…

Let us make every effort to do what leads to peace and,

to mutual edification…

Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another,

instead make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother’s way

If he has done you any wrong or owes you anything,

charge it to me…

Grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior,

Jesus Christ….

The Lord your God is with you He is mighty to save

He will take great delight in you

He will quiet you with His love

He will rejoice over you with singing…

Therefore we do not lose heart

Though outwardly we are wasting away

Yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day…

Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power

Be joyful always pray continually

Give thanks in all circunstances

For this is God’s will you in Christ Jesus…

For God so loved the world that He gave His

one and Only Son…

That whoever believes in Him shall not perish

but have eternal life…

Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than

all we ask or imaging

According to His power that is at work within us

To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus

throughout all generations

For ever and ever

Amen…

Have A Bless Day

Ashadhi Ekadashi ( 21st July 2010)

Ashadhi Ekadashi ( 21st July 2010)

The annual
Pandharpur Yatra to the famous Vithoba Temple at Pandarpur in
Maharashtra is an unparalleled pilgrimage that breaks the barriers of
caste, creed, rich and poor. Vithoba Temple is also known as Vitthal
Rukhmini Temple and is dedicated to Lord Krishna. The most important
annual pilgrimage is a 21-day trek known as Pandharpur Ashadhi Ekadasi
Waari and culminates on the Ekadasi day in the Marathi month Ashadi. In
2010, the Pandarpur Yatra Palki of Tukaram Maharaj from Dehu near Pune
will start on July 3, 2010 and will end on July 21, 2010 at Pandarpur
on Ashadi Ekadasi.

One of the most
famous pilgrimages in Maharashtra, Pandharpur Ashadhi Ekadashi Wari has
been taking place for more than 700 years. The procession was started
in the current form by Sant Tukaram’s son Narayanmaharaj in 1685. But
it is believed that the first pilgrimage was done by the parents of
Saint Dnyaneshwar in the 13th century and Sant Dnyaneshwar during his
time popularized it.

The main
Pandharpur Yatra starts from the Sant Tukaram Temple at Dehu. The
warkaris or pilgrims follow the Tukaram Maharaj Palkhi procession. This
main procession is joined by other palkhis from other towns and
villages like the famous Sant Dnyaneshwar palkhi from Alandi.

Pandharpur
Yatra takes place twice in a year one during Ashadhi Ekadasi (June –
July) and another during Kartik Ekadasi (October – November).

Pandharpur
Yatra is a classic example of unparalleled devotion to a personal
deity, a great aspect of Bhakti sect. The amazing fact is that the
Yatra is attracting more and more pilgrims each year. People young and
old travel for kilometers barefooted chanting the holy names. The Yatra
presents a perfect amalgamation of all castes, creed, rich, poor,
young, old and children.

Pandharpur is located in Solapur
District of Maharashtra. The main Pandharpur Yatra starts from Dehu in
Pune District. From there it travels to Pune city, Alandi and finally
the 21 day trek ends on the previous day of Ashadhi Ekadasi at
Pandharpur.

Opportunities Are Like Sunrises.

If You Wait Too Long,

You Can Miss Them.
Life is a gift -Live it-Enjoy it-Celebrate it -And fulfill it.]

Before you complain about the taste of your food

Think of someone who has nothing to eat .

Before you complain about your husband or wife

Think of someone who’s crying out to God for a companion.

Today before you complain about life

Think of someone who went too early to heaven.

Before you complain about your children

Think of someone who desires children but they’re barren.

Before you argue about your dirty house; someone didn’t clean or sweep ,Think of the people who are living in the streets.

Before whining about the distance you drive

Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.

And when you are tired and complain about your job

Think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job.

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another Remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker.

And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down

Put a smile on your face and thank God you’re alive and still around.

Life is a gift
Live it…
Enjoy it…
Celebrate it…
And fulfill it.

And while you are at it give love to someone today
Love someone with what you do and the words you say
Love is not meant to be kept locked inside of us and hidden. So give it away “Give Love to someone today!”

HAPPY FATHER”S DAY

2010-06-20T19:22:19Z

Happy Father’s Day to all

People tell me that,
I look like you,
And when I look in the mirror,
I know that it is true.

And it breaks my heart,
And the tears start to fall,
Because it’s like I’m looking into you’re eyes,
Because they’re also the same as yours.

I have you’re personality,
You’re big bright smile,
But it has been missing,
For such a long while.

I have not laughed for a long time,
But I laugh just like you did daddy,
I can crack jokes,
Like you would I can be funny.

We shared the same love in music,
Both hated the same foods,
And we used to always be,
Picky about what we would chose.

We had a close bond,
That we both thought would never break,
But it all changed,
When you died beside me and wouldn’t wake.

I have lost you forever,
I can never let you go,
Although it’s been six years,
I still miss you so.

It has been so hard,
To grow up without you around,
But I made it daddy,
And I hope I did you proud.

I still think of you,
Every single passing day,
It’s impossible not to,
I would never push you away.

Please take good care of mommy,
Brother and sisters too,
And always remember,
That I will forever love you.

Daddy come back.
I want you back.
Why did you have to go.
It’s just not the same without you.
We still get mail with your name on it.
It makes me sad every time i see the envelopes.
I’m always thinking about you.
Your always making me teary-eyed.
I love you daddy why did you have to go.
I miss you a lot but you obviously don’t know.
Otherwise you wouldn’t have had to go.
God makes me mad because he took you away.
It’s hard not to cry in front of god, but i go anyway.
Sometimes when I’m all alone and i have time to think.
I think about you and i cry and cry and cry.
Some people think “oh you should be over this”
But then i think to myself you don’t know how it feels to be in this
pain
or to how hard it is to make it go away.
friend try to help me but they don’t help at all.
My head hurts all the time, especially when I’m about to cry.
Its hard to type down these words as tears blur up my eyes.
When i try to speak about you i choke and then i start to cry
I miss you daddy why did you have to go.

LOVE YOU DAD
&

MISS YOU TOO
