On Feb 7, 2008 M Rajeshwar Prasad writes: All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small, all things wise and wonderful, the Lord God made them all. Vission, hearing, speech are the input devices that the Lord God has given to the mankind. The best way we can express our heartfelt gratitude to God is by seeing good things, speaking good and hearing good. Certainly the output from us will be GOOD. This is the best acknowledgement to God and in my opinion, God wishes it so.
