ਕਰਮੀ ਆਪੋ ਆਪਣੀ ਕੇ ਨੇੜੈ ਕੇ ਦੂਰਿ ॥
ਜਿਨੀ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਇਆ ਗਏ ਮਸਕਤਿ ਘਾਲਿ ॥
ਨਾਨਕ ਤੇ ਮੁਖ ਉਜਲੇ ਕੇਤੀ ਛੁਟੀ ਨਾਲਿ ॥੧॥
According to their own actions, some are drawn closer, and some are driven farther away.
Those who have meditated on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, and departed after having worked by the sweat of their brows.
-O Nanak, their faces are radiant in the Court of the Lord, and many are saved along with them! ||1||
Shabad: 8
ਸੁਖੁ ਦੁਖੁ ਪੁਰਬ ਜਨਮ ਕੇ ਕੀਏ ॥
ਸੋ ਜਾਣੈ ਜਿਨਿ ਦਾਤੈ ਦੀਏ ॥
ਕਿਸ ਕਉ ਦੋਸੁ ਦੇਹਿ ਤੂ ਪ੍ਰਾਣੀ ਸਹੁ ਅਪਣਾ ਕੀਆ ਕਰਾਰਾ ਹੇ ॥੧੪॥
Pleasure and pain are the consequences of the actions of past lives.
The Giver, who blesses us with these - He alone knows.
So who can you blame, O mortal being? The hardships you suffer are from your own actions. ||14||
Shabad: 1030-1031
I'm not really suffering from any hardship or anything - Everything is going as it should be. I'm happy with life. It's just that today I was in the Gurdwara and there was an Akhand Paath, and the Sikhitothemax thing was running. Gurbani is just full of jewels. All of it's so true. We've got 'good phases' in our life, and 'bad phases'. Often these are due to our own actions, and our own mentality. We are the ones who put ourselves into the sticky ****.
We can't blame God when we ourselves are responsible for it. We are responsible for our actions and their rewards, yet we blame God. Poor God. God has to endure the torture of listening to us whining and complaining about being stuck in some hard circumstance the we ourselves put ourselves into!
God has a lot of patience. Thank God for that, otherwise we'd be quite screwed =D

Will try to conjure up some more rubbish to write soon... I am missing writing and interacting with people on the blog.
I'm fine [the good kind (",)] thanks.

It's ok to run out of things to write about, since most of the things you write are quite serious and have an underlying message. Keep writing =)
No veer I havn't recieved any mail yet. Which one did you send it on - the msn one?
