This Will Shock You!!!.....9- 11 Trivia

This is actually really freaky!! (mainly the end part, but read it all first)

1) New York City has 11 letters

2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.

3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993) has 11 letters.

4) George W Bush has 11 letters.

This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets more interesting:

1) New York is the 11th state.

2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.

3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11

4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65

passengers. 6+5 = 11

5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11

6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number 911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11

Sheer coincidence. .?! Read on and make up your own mind:

1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254. 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year. Again 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

3) The Madridbombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.

4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.!

Now this is where things get totally eerie:

The most recognized symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the

Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Quran, the Islamic holy book:

"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The

wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah while some

of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of the

Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was peace."

That verse is number 9.11 of the Quran.

unconvinced about all of this Still ..?!

Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:

Open Microsoft Word and do the following:

1. Type in capitals Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to

hit one of the Twin Towers.

2. Highlight the Q33 NY.

3. Change the font size to 48.

4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS

What do you think now?!!

Did You Call Me?

God : Hello. Did you call me?

Me: Called you? No. Who is this?
God: This is GOD. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat.

Me: I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in the midst of
something.
God: What are you busy at? Ants are busy too.

Me: Don't know. But I can't find free time. Life has become hectic. It's rush hour all the
time.

God: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes
time. Productivity frees it.

Me: I understand. But I still can't figure out. By the way, I was not expecting YOU to buzz
me on instant messaging chat.


God: Well I wanted to resolve your fight for time, by giving you some clarity. In this net
era, I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with.

Me: Tell me, why has life become complicated now?


God: Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated.

Me: Why are we then constantly unhappy?


God: Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You are worrying
because you are analyzing. Worrying has become your habit. That's why you are not
happy.

Me: But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?


God: Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional.

Me: But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty.


God: Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.

Me: If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?

God: Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire.
Good people go through trials, but don't suffer. With that experience their life
become better not bitter.

Me: You mean to say such experience is useful?


God: Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the
lessons afterwards.

Me: But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can't we be free from problems?


God: Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessons (to) Enhance
Mental Strength. Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you
are free from problems.

Me: Frankly in the midst of so many problems, we don't know where we are heading.


God: If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking
outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides
insight.

Me: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right
direction. What should I do?


God: Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure
as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you
rode ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock.

Me: In tough times, how do you stay motivated?


God: Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always
count your blessing, not what you are missing. Me: What surprises you about people?

God: When they suffer they ask, "why me? When they prosper, they never ask "Why me"
Everyone wishes to have truth on their side, but few want to be on the side of the
truth.

Me: Sometimes I ask, who I am, why am I here. I can't get the answer.

God: Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a
purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a
process of creation.

Me: How can I get the best out of life?


God: Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the
future without fear.

Me: One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.


God: There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is NO.

Me: Thank you for this wonderful chat. I am so happy to start the day with a new sense
of inspiration.


God: Well. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don't believe your doubts and doubt
your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is
wonderful if you know how to live.
