Destiny


Death Came To A Guy And Said, “My Friend Today Is Your Day”
Guy:- “But I’m Not Ready!”.
Then Death Said, “Well Your Name Is The Next On My List”.
Guy:- “Okay Why Don’t You Take A Seat And I Will Get You Something To Eat Before We Go?”
Then Death Said,”All Right..”
The Guy Gave Death Some Food With Sleeping Pills In It,
Death Finished Eating And Fell Into A Deep Sleep
The Guy Took The List & Removed His Name From Top Of The List And Put Into The Bottom Of The List.
When Death Woke Up He Said To The Guy, “Because You Have Been So Very Nice To Me,
I Will Start From The Bottom Of The List..”
MORAL: Whatever Is Written In Your Destiny…Will Never Change No Matter How Much You Try To…!

History of April Fool's day


An Interesting History of 1752
Here is an interesting historical fact. Just have a look at the calendar for the month of September 1752.
Go to Google type "September 1752 calander " & see for yourself.
You will notice, 11 days are simply missing from the month.
Here's the explanation: This was the month during which England shifted from the Roman Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar.
A Julian year was 11 days longer than a Gregorian year. So, the King of England ordered 11 days to be wiped off the face of that particular month.
So, the workers worked for 11 days less that month, but got paid for the whole month. That's how the concept of "paid leave" was born. Hail the King!!!
In the Roman Julian Calendar, April used to be the first month of the year; but the Gregorian Calendar observed January as the first month. Even after shifting to the Gregorian Calendar, many people refused to give up old traditions and continued celebrating 1st April as the New Year's Day. When simple orders didn't work, the King finally issued a royal dictum; which stated that those who celebrated 1st April as the new year's day would be labelled as fools.
From then on, 1st April became April Fool's Day.History is really interesting, isn't it ?
