Man is a Blissful Human Being

Disadvantages of Being a Man

You work your entire life making money just to get a wife. 

You'll need a woman to confirm whether you get married or not, after buying a ring.

You spend millions to make your wedding a success, and your wife takes the glory. 

You work extra hours out of your ability after marriage. 

You may not think about a child but it’s just like womanish.

You must be a selfish to keep happy to your wife.

You may miss your old father and mother or past.

You give money for housekeeping and you get to eat only dinner.

You shared everything with your family even a toast in coffee bar.

You neither do anything without concern nor alone.

You work hard to make properties just to make a will for your wife and children.

You have to act tough no matter your fears. 

You never reach in time at your home instead of your wife’s urge.

You couldn't guide children because you leave & reach home when they were in bed.

You are just like a Robot to say, “Good night”, but in reply “Too night”.

You might give more time to your boss than your child and wife.

You don’t have time for a kiss and an embrace which will mend every hurt of your heart.

You wouldn't hold hands, walk along and cherish the moment which will not back again.

You have to expense more and more to maintain more happy life.

You would be in restaurant with your wife but never before alone.

You need to mend your puncture but never show to other.

You have to fulfill needs of your wife & child but never yours.

You spend your hard earned money to take your children to school.

You must neglect your personal life and when they grow up they celebrate Mothers' day.

Thanks to all Father who dedicate their whole life for a Mother…!

After all a Man is blissful human being because he is ready to welcome burden of a woman and embrace all menace of a woman.

MORE & LESS

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MORE & LESS

We talk too much, hate too often and love too seldom.

We watch TV too much, read too little and pray too seldom.

We drink too much, smoke too much and stay up too late.

We drive too fast, get too angry and get up too tired.

We eat more foods, but less digest.

We have bigger houses, but smaller families.

We have done larger things, but less better things.

We have more conveniences, but less time.

We have more degrees, but less sense.

We have more experts, yet more problems.

We have more knowledge, but less judgment.

We have more medicine, but less wellness.

We make more relations, but hold less.

We plan more, but accomplish less.

We spend more, but have less.

We spend too recklessly and laugh too little.

We teach more, but learn less.

We think more, but output less.

We want more profits, but sell less.

We are big men, but small character.

We build more computers, but communicate less.

We buy more, but enjoy less.

We write more, but learn less.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.

Time is more precious instead we are wasting more time, but gain less.
