Tuition
Nowadays tuitions have become very essential. Parents tend to believe that theirs children will succeed in the academic field if only they take as much tuitions in the subjects they are weak. But i believe that tuitions are not totally vital for the child to succeed.
OR IS IT BECAUSE...
The teachers are doing less than half of their duty to encourage parents to send theirs children to take tuitions?
OR IS IT POSSIBLE THAT...
The system of education is not properly 'mise en place'

Racism
Racism is cruel and unjust. It cuts deep and lingers long in individual and community memories. And it is not a thing of the past....We all have a duty to do what we can to turn this around.-- William Deane
Child Abuse
Child abuse is reported on an average of every 10 seconds and three children die every day as a result of such abuse. Sadly, Colorado has one of the highest rates of child abuse in the country. According to Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, homicide is the second leading cause of injury deaths for children under age 5 in Colorado. 34 children under age 5 died of child abuse in 2004 and 2005. Further compounding the problem, Colorado’s state funding to help battle child abuse ranks among the lowest in the nation.
Child abuse and neglect is reaching epidemic proportions with disastrous consequences. Judges, lawyers, physicians and other community professionals agree that tax dollars would be best spent preventing abuse and preserving families. Unfortunately, adequate resources have not been invested by state and Federal government to make significant prevention possible. One problem is that on both these levels the political constituency necessary to meet the needs of children has not been organized..
In 2005, apporoximately 30,000 children were reported abused or neglected and referred for investigation in Colorado.
Out of that number, nearly 9,000 cases were substantiated or indicated as abused. Twenty-one percent suffered physical abuse, 46.6% neglect, 1.4% medical neglect, 11.5% sexual abuse, 5% psychological maltreatment and 18% other or unknown.
Boys and girls are equally likely to be abused or neglected.
Approximately 80% of child abuse is perpetrated by a parent or caregiver.
An average of 20 children in Colorado die from suspected abuse or neglect every year.
Children under the age of 4 account for 75% of all child abuse deaths.
Neglect occurs more frequently than abuse and can be equally damaging and deadly. 30% of all child fatalities are due to neglect.
11,927 children spent some portion of 2005 in substitute (foster) care .
Approximately 1,500 abused and neglected children receive intensive, rehabilitative mential health services in residential programs.
The majority of children in residential care have been victims of significant physical or sexual abuse.

Reality
Obstacles are those frightful things you see
When you take your eyes off the goal...
and
Sometimes our best is simply not enough
We have to give what is required..

Riches
Riches either serve or govern the possessor...
The pleasures of the rich are bought with the tears of the poor...
Do you believe that?

Orthodoxy
I think vital religion has always suffered when orthodoxy is more regarded than
virtue...
the scriptures assure me that at the last day we shall not be examined
on what we thought but what we did...

Newspaper
If a man makes money by publishing a newspaper, by poisoning the wells of information, by feeding the people a daily spiritual death, he is the greatest criminal I can conceive.

How far do you think this is true.

Innocence
No matter how older we turn, there should always be the sense of innocence in us..
Playing, Joking or Laughing in no more the same as we used to do when we were young.
With work, family, children and social life we tend to forget the person deep inside us. Sometimes we wish we could play like children, mimic animals, laugh loudly..no matter what people will say, do things which we like or things we could not do when we were young maybe time was the foe..but still there are many things hidden in us which we want to do but we continue to think about people's comments..
What are your personal approach to this aspect?

Logic
Either you know everything or you know nothing...
There is no half way back! (Krishnamurthi)
what do you think?
Can we say that we know:
<> Everything?
Or do we say that we know:
<>Nothing?

Meditation
Meditation helps in gaining stability in your life.
But if you have a family and everything is going on smoothly for all the members then how do you think meditation is still important?

Human Rights
The Human Rights are created to protect people whose rights have been violated.
Among many articles in the Human Rights there is the right of privacy-article 12.
<> How far do you think the right of privacy are being respected?
We are in a democratic country where we have the freedom of speech.
<> Are our point of views important for a country because it seems that what we want for our country is not what is happening.

Art
Though Abstract Art is not always easy to understand... it does not need an Artist's eyes to interprete the painting.
You need some imagination to go through the painting.
If you are infront of an Abstract painting what would be your point of views :
<> of abstract painting
<> of the Artist

Philosophy
What is Mind?
Mind is matter
What is matter?
Nevermind....
Some answers are very easy to find but people tend to complicate things. And this is where things become out of control.
What are your perceptions?

Relationship
Being in a relationship means that you have to tell your partner everything.......

Time
Time:
Some argue that we can have a race against Time while the rest believe that Time has always been a foe. The world is moving to an unconsiderable speed, probably leaving behind things which is important.
Do you think people who have decided to move rapidly though financially are right?
or
People should become more detached of the material world?
