How many of us below 30 can complete a full marathon in less than 5:30 hours?

Dang Trung Dung, a Vietnamese-American businessman, was the founder and chief technology officer of OnDisplay. His rags-to-riches saga began on a night in 1984 at the age of 17 when Dung secretly immigrated to United States from Vietnam on a fishing boat. After spending a year in an Indonesian refugee camp he came to Boston with $2. Despite the hardships of initial painful and struggling years, Trung never gave up on his dream and continued studies. He did postgraduate in Computer Science from Boston University, and MBA from BKU. Earlier, he completed bachelor degrees in Mathematics and Computer Science with highest marks from the University of Massachusetts Boston.

Before finding his own company he worked as an engineer at Open Market, and developed of Internet commerce software. After several years, he finally established his software development company named and named it OnDisplay Corporation that designed software to retrieve required and selective information from related websites and assembled them in a user-friendly way. In 1999, it became one of the 10 most successful IPOs, and in 2000 it was sold to Vignette Corporation (now known as OpenText) for USD1.8 billion.

Wonderful Poem!
Sharing on Facebook, thanks :-)

molisk: You forgive me for liking you too much,
And I'll forgive you for not liking me enough.

You forgive me for missing you so,
And I'll forgive you for being so cold.

You forgive me for the loud racing of my heart,
And I'll forgive you for not hearing it.

You forgive me for playing your games,
And I'll forgive you for toying with my emotions.

You forgive me for finding you so attractive,
And I'll forgive you for not noticing.

You forgive me for raising you up so high,
And I'll forgive you for bringing me down so low.

You forgive me for wanting to be with you,
And I'll forgive you for avoiding me.

You forgive me for being so pathetic,
And I'll forgive you for taking advantage of it.

You forgive me for not being able to let go,
And I'll forgive you for never having latched on.

You forgive me for having hopes and dreams,
And I'll forgive you for crushing them.

Forgiveness brings inner peace.
Do we have a deal?

Minor offenders can be forgiven and not the ones who screwed your entire life.

greatgod2012: Make sure u forgive everyone that have offended you b4 you die.

Make a lot of money should have been on top of the list

Brand_new: most of these things you mentioned can't be done without some good money so maybe you should have "make lots of money" at the top of the list.

Great list

Though I won't try #12 (I am an atheist) and #13 (I don't like going near the creepy stuffs including fish)
Rest of the things is fine in the list. Have tried some of them and will do the rest in course of time..I'm just enjoying my 20s

Who is OP?

Chinwem: Lovely.........well done OP

At least this man is honest about himself and has handed himself over to lord.

Do not harass people of other religions

They say some dog owners bear an uncanny resemblance to their pets.

Well that will most definitely be the case for whoever takes in this adorable poodle/ Shih Tzu cross who has an eerily human-like face.

The two-year-old, called Tonik, is looking for a new home after being rescued from a kill shelter in Kentucky, U.S.He was saved from being put down by the Homeward Bound Animal Welfare Group in Mishawaka, Indiana, which describes him as 'a very sweet boy who is trying to figure things out and enjoy people'.

The centre says he is great with other dogs and is not dangerous, but should not be placed with young children because he will become too overwhelmed.

t adds that he will 'need a home with lots of patience and good energy.' He has been micro-chipped, groomed and given a clean bill of health.

His adoption donation is $250 and will need to be collected from the centre as they do not ship their animals.

Wonderful share..along with pics

Ryan's story needs to reach to the people who get into drugs and become gang members. God wants us all to be happy and content. All we need to do is "Give some Honest Tries and keep trying till we are what we wish to be"

Yes, some people get themselves on tumultuous road and screw themselves up. But that doesn't mean they do not deserve a second chance. Ryan's example in one of many...People can create history regardless what they are and what they have been.

alexwrld: His step father's words, ‘I have faith in you’ pushed him to do something out of his own courage.

The self-made millionaire Ryan Blair reached the pinnacle of success through the toughest and unlikely life events. His journey from pathetic upbringing in decayed family surroundings, domestic abuse, drugs, alcoholism, desertion, imprisonment, and poverty to becoming multimillionaire proves that anybody, provided he or she has craved desire, can accomplish anything they want to and become anybody they aspire to. His own drug addict engineer father was cruel and violent towards his mother and indifferent to any family responsibility. He would frequently abuse them and hold the gun to his mother’s head in front of everybody. He finally abandoned them when Blair was 13 year old with his small sister and brother. His mother became a drug addict and Blair went on to joining a gang of criminals and murderers. In some years, he forgot to care if he was alive or dead.

A break knocked his door when his mother began dating a wealthy man who picked up him from criminal gang and tried to provide him the best possible life. His stepfather was the first person ever to give him a wakeup call. His words, ‘I have faith in you’ pushed him to do something out of his own courage.

At the age of 21, he started his first business and failed. He went on to starting 10 different businesses and failed in all. In 2005, Blair started the Detroit-based ViSalus, a weight loss and fitness program and this time he lived no ground to failure. ViSalus was an instant success! Today, the value of his current business is a staggering $600 million.

Beautiful quote

Improve your financial condition and get rich; if can’t, then die trying. Curtis James Jackson (50 cent) has sent out the message loud and clear through his first album, “Get rich or die trying”. He was the son of a 15 year old single mother who was forced to work as a drug dealer, and he himself worked as a drug dealer. He was caught as a teen and sent to correctional center but returned a better man determined to change his life. At the age 25, he was shot 9 times, faced his fears but took every chance to improve his life and he successfully did.

Promise yourself to try your best, if Curtis James Jackson could, why not you? If you feel like giving up, read about those great achievers on how they did it. You will feel light and thankful to be blessed with everything required to accomplish.
