One day I decided to quit...
I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality... I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.
'God', I said. 'Can you give me one good reason not to quit?'
His answer surprised me...
'Look around', He said. 'Do you see the fern and the bamboo?'
'Yes', I replied.
When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them.
I gave them light. I gave them water.
The fern quickly grew from the earth.
Its brilliant green covered the floor.
Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed.
But I did not quit on the bamboo.
In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful.
And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed.
But I did not quit on the bamboo. He said.
'In the third year, there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit. In the fourth year, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. 'I would not quit.' He said. 'Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth.
Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant... But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.
It had spent the five years growing roots.
Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle.'
He said to me. 'Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots.'
'I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on you. ' Don't compare yourself to others ..' He said. ' The bamboo had a different purpose than the fern ... Yet, they both make the forest beautiful.'
Your time will come, ' God said to me. ' You will rise high! ' How high should I rise?' I asked.
How high will the bamboo rise?' He asked in return.
'As high as it can? ' I questioned.
' Yes. ' He said, 'Give me glory by rising as high as you can. '
I left the forest and bring back this story.
I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you.
He will never give up on you.
Never regret a day in your life.
Good days give you happiness
Bad days give you experiences;
Both are essential to life.
A happy and meaningful life requires our continuous input and creativity. It does not happen by chance. It happens because of our choices and actions. And each day we are given new opportunities to choose and act and, in doing so, we create our own unique journey.' Keep going...
Happiness keeps you Sweet,
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrows keep you Human,
Failures keep you humble,
Success keeps You Glowing,
but Only God keeps You Going!

The main causes of liver damage
The main causes of liver damage are:
1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are main cause.
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3. Too much eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial sweetener.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the
best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.
8. Consuming raw (overly done) foods also add to the burden of liver.
Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.
DO TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH...............

Beautiful photos one in a billion shot
Live every day with enjoyment - we don't know what tomorrow will give us.
Can you imagine being in position to get one of these photos? A one in a billion shot.
The early birds catch the worms. Lovely birds are sharing the food.
Well-done eagle wonderful catch of fish. You deserve for this photo. Eagle has very large powerful hooked beaks for tearing flesh from their prey, strong legs, and powerful talons.
Hide and seek game: Grasshopper says with camouflage lizard, “I caught you and I will eat you.”
Mmmm… Yummy! Yummy! it is delicious. I love it.
I am very hungry. I need 2 fishes not 1. I will fry one fish and make a curry with other fish.
What a nice smell.
Little frog is asking you. I can dangle like this, can you?
I told you so many times not to put here.
Shhhhhhhh don’t make noise!
Can I join in your group.
This is my bed.
I can sleep like this, can you?
Follow me in a queue.

Some Good Thoughts
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.
It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to 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.
Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.
It's the second mouse that 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.
Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
We could learn a lot from crayons...Some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, and some have weird names, 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...
May you always have Love to Share, Health to Spare, and Friends that Care.

I get Uploading file error when uploading audio/video files in Ray Media and Video Players
1) This is a common problem and most of the time it is caused by the following reasons:
1) You're trying to upload files bigger than 2 Megabytes which is the default value for PHP configuration. To fix it, edit php.ini file which is used as a configuration file by your PHP processor. You have to find two variables: upload_max_filesize and post_max_size and assign bigger values to them.
2) You don't have .htaccess or have it corrupted in the ray folder. Here's the code that this file must contain:
SecFilterEngine off
3) You have the correct .htaccess file but it gets overridden by other Apache settings on your server. You should contact your hosting provider in this case.
4) You don't have the proper ffmpeg.exe in ray/modules/global/app or it doesn't have 777 permissions (readable, writable, executable). In this case change the permissions and make sure the ffmpeg.exe file is applicable to your operating system: Linux (provided with Dolphin), Windows or FreeBSD.
5) You have incorrect permissions for the following folders:
ray/modules/mp3/files/, ray/modules/movie/files and ray/modules/music/files These folders must have 777 permissions.
6) You have PHP exec() function disabled on your server. Advise with your hosting provider in order to figure this out.
2) If you still can't make it work, please follow this diagnostic procedure:
* To determine the reason of such problems, create a php file with the following contents, upload it in your Dolphin's root directory and run it in your browser window:
echo "
PHP INI settings
";
echo "
safe mode = ".ini_get('safe_mode');
echo "
disabled functions = ".ini_get('disable_functions');
echo "
max execution time = ".ini_get('max_execution_time');
echo "
post_max_size = ".ini_get('post_max_size');
echo "
upload max filesize = ".ini_get('upload_max_filesize');
echo "
ffmpeg output";
$s = realpath("ray/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe");
echo `$s -version 2>&1`;
Output analysis:
safe_mode = if this variable has non-empty value then ffmpeg will not be able to execute; in this case advise with your hosting about disabling safe mode.
disabled_functions = if this variable contains exec then this function is forbidden by hosting and thus your script won't be able to run ffmpeg.
max_execution_time, max_input_time = it's usually set to 30 seconds; you should increase its value several times.
post_max_size = the size of POST data that PHP can handle; it's usually set at 2M; you should increase its value up to 8M or more.
upload_max_filesize = the size limit of uploaded files; it's usually set at 2M; you should increase its value up to 8M or more.
ffmpeg output: - this command will result in a message like this:

If you didn't see anything like this your hosting doesn't allow your web script to run exe files (this can be the result of safe_mode and disabled_functions values, see above).
Possible ways to fix this problem:
* safe_mode and disabled_functions issues can be resolved only by hosting provider.
* There are 2 ways to resolve the issue with max_execution_time:
1) Create .htaccess file in Dolphin's root directory (or edit the existing .htaccess file) with the following line:
php_value max_execution_time 1000
2) If your hosting doesn't accept commands in .htacces files (such upload solution was implicated in Ray 3.1), add the following line in the ray/modules/movie/inc/functions.inc.php file, after global $sFilesPath; line in function convert:
@set_time_limit(1000);
* upload_max_filesize and post_max_size: create .htaccess file in Dolphin's root directory (or edit the existing .htaccess file) with the following line:
php_value upload_max_filesize 32M
php_value post_max_size 32M
* you should also increase or comment out the value for the wait_timeout variable in the my.cnf file (on Linux) or my.ini file (on Windows) - the configuration file for MySQL; then restart MySQL service.
