Welcome to this wonderful network of positive thinking people.
The quote I would like to send on my first posting on your page is,

The world or path may have many stones or thorns.... You cant spread carpet over it... So just wear a shoe to protect your feet and move on..

The theme is dont try to change the world.... First change yourself..

Namaste,

Ravi
