Today is Sunday. Feel timid after weeks of hyperactivities. Apparently the Oscar is tonight...not last night. But who care to watch. Tomorrow is back to work and another deadline to meet. Just couldn't think about it as it will be madness again orchestrating the work to get things done on time. Just managed to finish reading this book. Been a challenge these days to read book. Whereas Faris is reading his sixth for as many days, the Artemis Fowl series.
The three cups of tea is an excellent one to read and would recommend everyone to do so. It is about a man's mission to help the people and children in Pakistan. It also touches on Afghanistan, that made it the fourth book I read with links to Afghanistan. This book is really worth the read, great knowing that there are still people amongst us who has the courage, passion and commitment to help the least privilege peoples in this world. Greg Mortenson promised to an elder in a small village in the Himalayas to build a school after the villagers cared for him when he got lost and barely surviving following a failed attempt to climb the K2, the most dangerous mountain in the Himalaya. Three years later after a huge struggle, he managed to fulfill his promise. Fifteen years later, he managed to build nearly a hundred schools across the mountains and valleys in North Pakistan and Afghanistan. An incredible achievement. Just watch the video to see the whole story.
