Spirit of the Spirited

One of the most self-motivated, dynamic and capable guys from the Youth Wing is leaving Dubai soon, and thought I should share online what I shared with him:

It is the bold of spirit that prewrite history.

In the epic movie Cleopatra, Antony makes a statement to Octavian (Caeser's nephew) that goes something like this: When you die, you will realize that you died without ever having lived at all. History is embellished only with the chisel of defiance, and the hammer of counterculture. Intellectual, spiritual and cultural entropy form the watermark of civilization.

Alas, most of us exist watching life from the spectator's arena. It takes guts even to be foolish.

    are always transcended. And the Universe favours the brave. When you resolve to lift life to its highest level, the strength of the soul will guide you to a magical place with magnificent treasures.

  2. Well sir, for sure his absence will make our collective heart fonder for him. And it's not just the Youth who will have lost a real Youth, but another more fancied Wing as well. Watch this space for information in due course!
