Stuttering Phoenixes

There are many impediments in this wide world that hinder people from achieving what they want to. One of these is the inability to provide flow of speech or stuttering. These people cannot utter many words and thus, become the laughing stock. This happens when they talk of achieving big in their life in the field of spoken language such as orating or debating.

While this is true that this inability hampers them from flaunting such skills or winning accolades in them, it is nonetheless false that they won't be able to be successful in these areas. This could be seen in many people's lives. One of them is Malala Yousafzai's father. He used to stutter excessively. Though his own cousins would make fun of him in his younger days, he rose up to the occasion and wanted to prove them wrong.

This, he did when there was a speech competition in his district of the precincts of Swat valley. The man became nervous the moment his name was called out. But, later, the art of his speaking was enhanced and he delivered a great speech.

From this moment, his life was changed and everyone who used to insult him never found anything special to tease. He grew up to be an educated man with many degrees in academia- there was no looking back. Soon, he instilled the same love for education and knowledge in his young daughter. Passing on the traits in her, he is a very proud father now.

The moment people find a lacking in you doesn't mean that you are to be bogged down. But, it is just a downside in your life to conquer. If, and only if, you have the determination to conquer it, there is a great reward waiting for you. One should rise from the ashes like the proverbial Phoenix and prove himself. The world awaits!

The Reading Isotope

There is a saying that goes thus, 'You are what you read.' Well, it is true to the extent that whenever one buys a book, he has a goal to achieve. This can be to increase knowledge in a certain area. Some buy to have a great collection of books and stick to their genre that enthuses them. Whatever the topic one wants to read, there forms a opinion because of the facts --that can change-- presented in the way the writer thinks. Imagine, one reader who wants to know about a certain subject. Maybe he finds the answer to his questions in the book, but the way they are presented and some other facts overlooked bring a picture in his mind. A person reading a book with a left-leaning ideology develops his thinking in the same way. Another, with a right-leaning ideology develops his thoughts in the way portrayed. The reader, later, becomes a product of this thinking and hence the above phrase. I read biographies most of the time and these lead to many revelations about my life o
