Human values like democracy,cannot be stopped.
Human values like democracy, freedom of speech and freedom of the individual, these are changes whose momentum cannot be stopped.
We have seen the truth and power of these words over the past year as we have seen them in the long and varied history of man.

Patience
Patience
Patience guards us against losing our presence of mind so we can remain undisturbed, even when the situation is really difficult.

In our modern lives one thing that we fail to value so often is compassion which is one of the greatest things that we can show in life.
Genuine compassion is based not on our own projections and expectations, but rather on the rights of the other: irrespective of whether another person is a close friend or an…
