How impressive it is for a young lad holding as president post in the Children's Parliament in Varanasi, India. There is this organisation in India whereby as young as 9-year-old Tazim elected as president incharging of daily children issues such as child hunger, abuse, caste discrimination, forced early marriages etc. In India, there are no courses to train citizens to become politicians. From this parliament, the chilren learn their way to the top, exposing them to the competitive world and allowing them to manage things without using scandals.
A heroic figure as young as 9, how inspiring i am. Age is not a matter after all. I compare myself to this young boy, looking back at all my failures and give ups, how ashamed i felt. Why not just be like this boy who filled with this fiery passion and burden at the same time, to face our daily challenges, and learn our way to the top. If he can do it, why not us?
This teaches me nothing is impossible. If we look at the mirror, ya it is only you. But hey, look back at the mirror again, it is not just you. Just put a more faith in yourself, believing that you are a warrior in the mirror and hey, you are indeed a warrior.
