The Enlightment Through Abraham Lincoln

I was on the bus and decided to use that time to learn, as I usually. I am reading "Team of Rivals - The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln".


I was on the bus, I had just came from my university, I have no classes today, but went there to submit my application to a scholarship, and I was somewhat nervous, though I must much, much more controlled than some months ago. I am amazed at myself for this.

I entered the bus, sat at the seat behind the driver (right side), as in Portugal. In Portugal my dad drives and I'm by his side, so I always try to pick up the place were I feel more comfortable.

I started reading, and soon after got amazed. I first read the description the history of Abraham's rivals and than his'.

I was fascinated because could relate to Abraham when I read this. I felt intense vibes when I read this and my eyes got all teary. I was feeling nervous but this fascination kicked that anxiety out and inspiration pervaded me.

And with this too.


Unconsciousness is a bitch.


And wow, I would love to have met this "guy". He and I have many things in common.


And at some point I read that Abraham went to Portugal and reading that in the book kind of made me happy. 
And to quote him once more,

”Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing."



PS: Pics were taken at home, I had no battery on the smartphone and could only take pics at home.
