GURUNE CIVILIZATION
In recent years, there has been enough talk about equality. But what the world does not know is the hidden secrets of ancient civilizations that thought this burning issue through and nearly came out with a solution to the problem of inequality that is sinking many cultures, organizations, and even countries to this day. What then are this silent ancient secrets? They are the little signs of wisdom, which have been passed down to us from ancient times. In Gurune tradition for instance, every individual's name bigins with the first letter of the alphabets "A" and that is not just a coincidence, but also a great lesson for humanity to understand that for equality to prevail, in our world it must begin with the individual who reserves the right to life and freedom. However, sometimes even in Gurune tradition, you would come across some names that begin with the letter "N". This is because, even though tradition clearly spelt out in those days - that the key to human equality - begins with our names, children remained very respectful and obedient to their parents and would not play around with their parent's names hanging loosely on their lips. Such that, they often found it very embarassing to call their parents and care takers by their names and even to the point that many children who were named after their grand parents sometimes enjoyed some amount of respect and honour. Simply because, some parents who revered their parents, could not call their own children by their names, as they bore names of their grand parents or ancestors in blessed memories. Equality therefore remains everyones right under the sun and should not be taken for granted or viewed on the bases of how much wealth, power, knowledge, or greatness one enjoys over his peers.

Ah, now I do understand. You type three or four of 5 tildes, and it gets expanded to a link and/or a date. 01:35, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
