In the final analysis there is no solution to man's progress but the day's honest work, the day's honest decisions, the day's generous utterances and the day's good deeds.
I believe with all my heart that civilization has produced nothing finer than a man or woman who thinks and practices true tolerance.
None will improve your lot If you yourself do not.
The essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well.
Thank you all our sweet people for your lovely greetings ...
With Love, Amma-Nana

The best portion of a good man's life ...
The best portion of a good man's life is the little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.
The most basic of all human needs is the need to understand and to be understood. The best way to understand people is to listen to them.
The willingness to learn and grow is the key requirement for longterm success in a happy and fulfilling relationship.

Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life...
Study as if you were going to live forever; live as if you were going to die tomorrow;
The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.
The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference.
The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference.
And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference"

You do not have to agree in order to understand. But you do have to listen with an open mind
You do not have to agree in order to understand.
But you do have to listen with an open mind.
You do not have to give up or give in to another in order to understand.
But you do have to give your attention and consideration.
You do not have to change your own position in order to understand the position of another. But you do have to accept that there are valid perspectives besides your own.
Seeing the world only from your own point of view puts you at a distinct disadvantage. The more open you are to understanding others, the more effective your every action will be.
Realize what a true blessing it is that there are those who see things differently than you do. By offering your understanding you gain the benefit of an expanded perspective.
You've no doubt experienced how good it can be when there's someone who listens and truly understands. What's even better is to be that someone.

Dear All It Is For Your Reading!
-Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes but they don’t quit. They view the failure as a healthy inevitable part of the process of getting to the top.
-The difference between where we are and where we want to be will create healthy tension that can move us forward.
-Life is never static; for each moment is ever new and fresh.
-The best way to cope with change is to help create it.
-Every decision we make and every action we take is based on our present level of awareness.
-Social support should be facet of everyday life. Support must be reciprocal, give and take.
-Let us learn more and more how to downsize, eliminate, and get rid of all those tasks we neither enjoy nor benefit from.
"What do we live for, if not to make life less difficult for each other."

We can become better tomorrow, than we are today...
- Of all human resources, the most precious is the desire to improve.
- The difference between where we are and where we want to be will create healthy tension that can move us forward.
-Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.
-No body is perfect. Let us look for good in others. Forget the rest.
-Loyalty is most valuable, when it is not blind.
-Doing the best at this moment puts us in the best place for the next moment.
-Every decision we make and every action we take is based on our present level of awareness.
-Social support should be facet of everyday life. Support must be reciprocal, give and take.
-Let us learn more and more how to downsize, eliminate, and get rid of all those tasks we neither enjoy nor benefit from.
Don't count the steps ahead, just add up the total already covered of steps and multiply it by faith, confidence, and endurance.

Happy New Year
Dear Children,
Original and creative thinkers don’t let societal pressures dictate their lifestyles. Let us Farewell to 2005 & Welcome to the new year 2006!
The setting of New year's goals or new years resolutions are part of the letting go of the old and the ushering of the new. It is hope of future success. It is time for families to think about how to best welcome and celebrate 2006.
With Love,
AmmaNana
Family...
Family ties are precious things, woven through the years - of memories, of togetherness, of laughter, love, and tears.
Family ties are treasured things and far though we may roam, the tender bonds with those we love, still pull our hearts toward home.
Family is a golden chain, the links are members dear, and like a rare and precious jewel, its treasured more each year...
It's clasped together firmly with a love that's deep and true, and it's rich with happy memories and fond recollections too...
Time can't destroy it's beauty for as long as memory lives, years can't erase the pleasure that the joy of family gives...
For family is a priceless gift that can't be bought or sold, but to have an understanding family is worth far more than gold...
And the golden chain of family is a strong and blessed tie binding kindred hearts together, as the years go passing by.
Family is like a patchwork quilt with kindness gently sewn. Each piece is an original with beauty of its own. With threads of warmth and happiness, It's tightly stiched together. To last in love throughout the years, family is forever.
