Hello everyone,

I think, we are responsible for our choice of conversation and our thought, hence our actions. Our practise of belief, our realisation and connection to the divine, the purity of our being is limited by immature and self-serving demonstrations. Through incorrectly established ambition and desire, we set about our own defeat just like Golden Brown’s unpopular remarks on Robert Mugabe. This can also teach us the importance of been diplomatic, no matter how wrong a person might be, there is a way to deal with him/her. Mugabe might not be a darling in the globe right now but due to the untimely remark from Golden Brown, Mugabe became even more popular and jubilant from the support he gains without saying a word.      
    
We cannot be within our faith and upon solid ground if we depart through demonstrations of self-actualised, unprincipled, and unfocused understanding of our only true nature, that of divine mind, the ease of being founded and maintained by and through oneness of action. Without unity and mature thoughts and interactions, nothing will work in this world we are living. Recently the German chancellor decides to meet Dalai Lama to show the Chinese Government that, they should also try to be flexible and go with the flow sometimes in-order to help the stability we are all aiming for. Fancy in Burma, the majority of the people don’t want the junta to rule yet China is not co-operating to put sanction in place saying it is internal and therefore, doesn’t treat the stability of the world or the region, but how many refugees is China and it neighbours receiving? Is that not regional crises? Just like Zimbabwe and its neighbours. Even thus they are resisting changes in these
 countries, yet they never allow all refugees to enter their territories. If for-example the whole world let apathy to be internal affair as they did earlier, will that bring decency in the world? There are moral issue in this world that cannot and will never be solving without co-operation understanding of powerful states. 
     
Some might argue, upon their own right, the fact that, there are moral questions that needed definitive resolution such as nuclear energy issue where the powerful nation sound unrealistic on the approach, which true because, and i think, every nation has the right to secure your interest and the interest of your people as charity begins at home. Those problems, I think, are in the future even thus the brightness of the future needs present plans, But shall we call it "moral" securing interest while your citizens  are dying for hunger, inflation, poverty, unemployment etc? moral issue such as hunger, poverty and death caused by selfish acts, shouldn’t be downplayed in any cost.  
  
Therefore, let us keep our thoughts and conversations to that which is maintained by prudent behaviour and thoughts. Where our thoughts go our body will follow. We ought to know that there is one of us, a unique, physical being created in the image of universe, (God), and all that is. Let us embrace the uniqueness God gave us, march to our own drummer and believe in the limitless attainments available to us. Live, love and learn.
  
We ought to remember!  It is ISLAM TO DO GOOD always even to those who do evil to us. It is ISLAM to love our neighbour as ourselves, and to do to all men as we would have them do to us. It is ISLAM to be gentle, merciful, and forgiving, and to keep those qualities quiet in our own hearts, and never make a boast of them, or of our prayers or of our love of God, but always to show that we love Him by humbly trying to do right in everything. If we do this, and remember the life and lessons of Our PROPHET, and try to act up to them, we may confidently hope that God will forgive us our sins and mistakes, and enable us to live and die in Peace.

May we all be guided in the name of Ramadan, 
May we be prevented from mischievous people 
May we attained to our desire achievement. May the world come to attain the unity and understanding.  
May the Almighty forgive people who might wrong us and prevent us from their evil intentions, 
May He forgive the deaths and open the door to heaven for them

May the prayers be sustained Amen.
