60 years of the Universal Declaration of the Human Rights
"It has always been a mystery to me howmen can feel themselves honoured by the
humiliation of their fellow beings"
-M.K.Gandhi
What a great FDC? Great words from a great man.... The FDC was issued in observance of 60 years of the Universal Declaration of the Human Rights. If u all are wondering why Im going off track again, pls take a closer look. The stamp features Four greatest Apostles of Peace and advocates of Human Rights of Mankind namely Mahatma Gandhi , Mother Teresa, Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr. Mother Teresa and Martin Luther King Jr. has contributed so much to the Christian World. May God bless all this people who has brought so much to the world. They are special for they are the very few who believe in sacrificing for others. They believe in equality and fought for it till the very end. Hereby, I salute the true warriors of our time. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!!!
