India has ranked 71st in happiness with only 17 percent people describing themselves as “thriving” in a new study of well-being that gives Denmark the top spot among 124 countries surveyed.

With Danes ranked the most contented people on the planet with a whopping 72 percent of residents considering themselves “thriving,” Sweden and Canada followed close behind, each at 69 percent in Gallup’s 2010 Global Wellbeing Survey.

The US came in somewhat near the middle of the pack, with 59 percent of Americans thriving.

A majority of Indians (64 percent) believe they are “struggling” while 19 percent think they are “suffering” according to the survey. Surprisingly Pakistanis were found to be happier. Pakistan was ranked 40th with 32 percent “thriving”. Among other neighbours, Bangladesh was placed 89 with only 13 percent thriving, while China was ranked 92 with only 12 percent happy respondents.

A median of just 21 percent were found to be “thriving” in the Gallup survey polling 1,000 adults, age 15 and older, in both face-to-face and telephone interviews in each country throughout 2010.

Outside of Europe and the Americas, however, other nations fared considerably less well. A mere 12 percent of the population considered themselves to be thriving in Egypt, followed by 6 percent in Kenya and, dead last, Chad with 1 percent.

For centuries, Men has moulded his decisions, his careers, his happiness all in the name of zodiac signs and its warnings.

Although, majority of educated people are still following zodiac signs, i still believe modern world is waking up from this superstitious belief .

Let me reason out why not to believe zodiac signs. Here we go!

The people who wrote the zodiac signs, dont know the real signs

Though the real date from which  the zodiac signs acceptance by the people is unknown, it is often dated back to 6th century BC.   Few well known people considered these signs as correct and wrote it. What they meant to be correct is now wrong which means for years and years people have been wrongly predicting the unknown.

That reminds me of what God said, Only I know the unknown. Man cannot know the unseen.

And that is the truth.

Zodiac Signs has spoiled many good decisions

Yep, people have wasted their beautiful career and their decisions based on what signs say. Some people even go out to seek their career when they find it is correct according to the signs. And now we know that signs were wrong. which means trusting some maniacs people have actually failed to cope up with their career decisions.

Zodiac signs has spoiled good marriages

I am glad to say the place where i live faces no problems in stars and marriages. But for those who are unaware of, few countries on this planet, considers stars and signs for marriage. If they find out the bride and groom stars doesnt match they call off the marriages without even bothering the real sentiments of the bride or groom.

So now since the signs have been proved wrong. How would our ancestors reply us on this discrimination.

Zodiac signs are the result of  disbelief in God

For people who are pious and god fearing, you can continue reading below. Those who does not believe God can skip it.

God said very clearly, believing in the stars and the zodiac signs is nothing but the act of linking God with other Gods.

On a matter of fact it is term as disbelief. If you think you follow God’s word and yet you follow the zodiac signs, then you should know that what you have done is an act of  polytheist.

People who say they can predict the future are doing nothing but speaking lies. The predictors will often ask you what date you are born and what is your stars.

Now, it has been proved that the stars which you follow is wrong and what was practiced for centuries also becomes false, how will you now explain years and years of  wrong words said by the future predictors?

Dont you think you have wasted your life by following some persons words rather than following God words?

If people stop believing zodiac signs and stars  atleast now, then i believe they can understand God.

Wake up at-least now!

A baby survives miraculously after battling out meningitis and  7 heart attacks in one night.

The baby survived after the doctors told the parents to say good bye to Ivan as there was very little chance of his survival.

As the saying goes, when doctors lose hope then there is always almighty for you. In Ivan Cawley’s scenario, we felt the blessing of god without whom the baby would have not survived!

The moment was full of happiness for Sade Jackson, 20, and Phillip Cawley, 24, as their baby survive who was just 10 month old.

Lets hear it from the mother Sade Jackson on how she felt at this painful moment of watching her baby in ICU.

Sade said,” Everything was going fin. I’d had no complications in pregnancy and he was born a healthy 7lb 1oz. We were settling in to being first time parents.

It was a sunday night and we put him to bed as normal and he was fine. But then when he woke up at around 4.30 am he was drenched with sweat and his skin felt like it was on fire but at the same time shivering.

It was really scary. We waited for the doctors to open and took him down straight away”

She added, “I had seen a little dot on his belly when i was changing him earlier that day ant the doctors said it could be the start of chicken pox, but told us we should go and get him checked out straight away at the hospital.

“At that point we didn’t really know what to think-we didn’t know what was happening,just that we had to get him seen as soon as possible”

The next few hours saw Ivan’s little body and he was rushed to ICU at sheffield children’s hospital as his defense was down.

Ivan’s parents were then informed that there was little chance for the baby survival as he battled out 7 cardiac arrest in a single night!

Sade said:”It was a really horrible time-the longest few hours. It’s hard to sum it up really and put into words how we felt

“It was awful seeing our little baby lying there with all these tubes coming out of him and looking so ill and weak.

‘The doctors told us he probably wouldn’t make it but him and the doctors kept battling. We lost him for 12 minutes during one of his attacks but amazingly he even pulled through that’

The baby was put on a ventilator for next seven days and his conditions were monitored.

Sade said:”It was the best feeling in the world when he started to show signs he was able to breathe for himself, the hospital staff were amazed by how well he was doing, they said he was a miracle.

He was transferred to a normal ward and he was getting back to his normal happy self. We felt so lucky to still have him.”

The baby is fine now and had a speedy recovery. The parents made a fundraising event in the local pub in an effort to show their gratitude towards the hospital that helped their baby to survive.
