UAE Police Warning - Please read.



 While driving in a rural area of the roadway in Al Warqa on Thursday morning a car driver saw an infant car seat on the side of the road with a blanket draped over it. For whatever reason he did not stop even though he had all kinds of thoughts running through his mind. But when he got to his destination he called the Police and they replied that were going to check it out. But, this is what the Police advised him even before they went out there to check.

There are several things to be well aware of. Gangs & thieves are now plotting different ways to get a person (mostly women) to stop their vehicle and get out of the car.

There is a gang initiation reported by the local Police where gangs are placing a car seat by the road with a fake baby in it ! Waiting for a woman, of course, to stop & check on the abandoned baby.

Note that the location of this car seat is usually beside a wooded or grassy (field) area & the person -- woman -- will be dragged into the woods, beaten up, raped & usually left for dead. If it's a man, they're usually beaten up & robbed and maybe left for dead, too.

DO NOT STOP FOR ANY REASON !!!! DIAL 999 & REPORT WHAT YOU SAW. BUT DON'T EVEN SLOW DOWN.

If you are driving at night & eggs are thrown at your windscreen don’t stop to check the car, don’t operate the wiper & don’t spray any water because eggs when mixed with water become milky & block your vision up to 92.5% & you are then forced to stop beside the road & become a victim of these criminals.
This is a new technique used by gangs around Al Khawaneej, Mirdiff, Al Aweer, Al warqa & Int’l City. Hence please inform your friends & relatives.

These are desperate times & these unsavory individuals will take any desperate measures to get what they want. Please talk to your loved ones about this. This is a new tactic used. Please be safe.
Get started now send this message to all your friends & loved ones to be careful & aware of everything around them so as not to become a victim.

Stress And A Glass of Water!

 
 

A lecturer, when explaining stress management to an audience,
raised a glass of water and asked,
"How heavy is this glass of water?"

Answers called out ranged from 20g. to 500g.

The lecturer replied, "The absolute weight doesn'tmatter.
It depends on how long you try to hold it.

If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem.

If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm.

If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance.

In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes."

He continued,

"And that's the way it is with stress management.

If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later,

as the burden becomes increasingly heavy,

we won't be able to carry on. "

"As with the glass of water,

you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it again.

When we're refreshed, we can carry on with the burden."

"So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down.

Don't carry it home.

You can pick it up tomorrow.

Whatever burdens you're carrying now,


So, my friend, put down anything that may be a burden to you right now.

Don't pick it up again until after you've rested a while.

Here are some great ways of dealing with the burdens of life:


* Accept that some days you're the pigeon,
and some days you're the statue.

* Always keep your words soft and sweet,
just in case you have to eat them.

* Always read stuff that will make you look good
if you die in the middle of it.

* Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be
recalled by their Maker.

* If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

* If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

* It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply be kind to others.

* Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time,
because then you won't have a leg to stand on.

* The second mouse gets the cheese.

* When everything's coming your way,
you're in the wrong lane.

* Birthdays are good for you.
The more you have, the longer you live.

* You may be only one person in the world,
but you may also be the world to one person.

* Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

* We could learn a lot from crayons... Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box.

*A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

Have an awesome day and know that someone has thought about you today...I did.
