why complain

WE ALL POSSESS THE TOOLS TO ADDRESS PROBLEMS THAT SEEM TO BESET US

WE ARE IN CONTROL OF OUR LIVES...

WE ARE ALL BLESSED WITH CREATIVE THOUGHT

LET US BE OPEN TO LEARNING WITHOUT PREJUDICE

LETS PURSUE CULTURAL LITERACY AS OUR SURVIVAL AS A SPECIES DEPENDS ON IT

ALL THAT WE SEEK, SEEKS US

LET US ALL EMBRACE CHALLENGES AS OPPORTUNITIES TO GROW

MAKE A HABIT TO LEARN OF ANOTHER IDEA, CONCEPT, ANOTHER VALUE EACH DAY

BUT MOST OF ALL...BE GRATEFUL

2006 be a time of CULTURAL LITERACY

Can 2006 be year, that all responsible POWERS recognise the value of CULTURAL LITERACY in the pursuit of GLOBAL CONFLICT RESOLUTION, PROSPERITY, RECIPROCITY , HARMONY & JUSTICE.

Let channels of communication be kept open on ALL levels so we may all learn (from) to accept our diverse Traditions, Ideas, Concept,Values, Habits , Skills, Instruments, and Institutions.

We acknowledge the efforts of our predecessors....
