Pictures That Should Change The World

For those who have not gone through experience like this should feel so lucky and should thanx to God The Merciful... and if you think you are unlucky or having bad luck... remember... there are others who feel worst...

I expect to pass through this world but once; any good thing therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now; let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.
