Let's give our children the freedom TO BE. Let our education equip them with : 1. Tools and Focus to understand themselves 2. Ability to accept themselves and others without being judgemental 3. A sense of Right that is guided by their own heart and conscience. May be then, our future generations will learn to truly Love, not just each other , but themselves too. And may be then, we can have a truly Happy World.”

I am peaceful so I am happy. Old ways of thinking have broken us enough it's time to change !”

“When a bad experience shakes your faith in humanity, hold those depressing thoughts and ask yourself. 1. How many things in life have you achieved Without anyone’s help ? I can almost guarantee none. The help may be in terms of an action, an advise, direction or mere presence. 2. How many times has someone just come in from nowhere in your time of need and said or done just what you needed at that moment. Each one of us is an angel for someone. Let's be that angel more often.”
