One
of the major lessons of history is that without social justice there will be no
social peace; and without freedom of speech and thought and worship there will
be no social justice and thus no social peace. On the other hand, no
ideological system of governance, regardless of its national or religious or
Marxist or capitalist nature, is capable of creating the necessary condition
for freedom of speech and thought and worship to prevail in society. Therefore,
no social justice or freedom or social peace is possible under an ideological
system of governance.

The Meaning of Life
The Meaning of life
The life we live is the time we spend enjoying what we love doing in life; the rest is a waste of life. The past is the moment we just left behind dying of old age, while worrying about its legacy. The present is what we experience in our everyday life, while trying to tame some challenges, enjoy others and remake many more to meet our needs and fulfill our desires. And the future is what we dream of having the next day in the morning.
Knowledge is the tool we have to have to transform reality and overcome the pain of failure and poverty, plant the seeds of success and enjoyment, and make all dreams come true. Transformation is the continuous process of questioning our traditions, attitudes, ideas, convictions, ways of thinking, as well as the wisdom of yesterday; and accepting the challenge of shaping our future as we are shaped by changing circumstances. And culture is what makes us human, able to love one another, live with each other, and struggle together to transform our world and make history.
