Surprises are unexpected...if they are expected then they aren't surprises, are they? Yes, some are pleasant and some are unpleasant. A pleasant surprise for me was on my last birthday...when my parents turned up at my place. I had not thought in my wildest dreams that they were coming to India.....and in fact, I was expecting friends of theirs as home guests and was preparing the home for them. It was such a pleasant surprise when my parents turned up (along with my sister), that I couldn't help the tears rolling down my cheeks (I haven't cried publicly in years). My husband who cannot keep a secret to himself...had managed not to let me know about this.....and made it a perfect surprise!

Oh, sorry to hear that apsara60. I had so many surprises, maybe I can share one. When I was in college, my boyfriend and I were separated for a while, because he went to his hometown while I was left there in my place. We didn't have class so he was there for quite a long time. I didn't know when he was coming back, we just text everyday. One time, my bestfriend and I watched a movie, in the middle of the movie, someone at my back reached for the food that I was eating, I was really surprised. When I turned around it was my boyfriend, smiling at me. Then we laughed.

Life is full of surprises Each day is a challenge Enjoy it!!!!!!!!!!

My mom always said. All things are equal. I always remember when she said to me though I don't understand what she meant. Now I know what she meant. When things by a surprise that is positive you must also expect the surprise in negative. I don't know why is always happen. All I can say is be happy when we are blessed and be vigilant when things go wrong.

Hi apsara! It is true that life is full of surprises. Congratulations to you on your salary hike. I do hope that you have been rewarded for your hard work at your work place and for your commitment and sincerity to the job, you have been assigned. Hope your son would recover sooner than later and he would soon be jumping on his feet. As far as I am concerned, I joined a new blog site recently, I submitted a poem and today - to my pleasant surprise I found that my poem features at the top of the site's home page and it is being prominently displayed over there. This made me doubly glad. Have a great day! Deepak

Yes life is full of unexpected surprises, and everytime there is good that was happened it will always have a bad happenings in exchange. I remember 2003 I got my second job, I was very happy and I want to come home in an urgent to let my parents know. When I got home my mother lost her job because the company she was working closed down. I was sad. I did not celebrate because i have a new job, but i feel sorry for my mother because they were not paid, even until now. Even before the closing of the year 2009, that Tuesday I went home and I was very happy, but when I found out what has happened to my father, my emotions shifted to grief. Since then I really don't know if I am ready for unexpected surprises.

we will have salary increase on May in each year,even if in the last year of the finacial crisis,this year the salary is increased a little more than last year which many employees in our company think should be more. But for me, i think it is ok for me,so i feel very happy.
