When we think as a Asian the name of Abraham Lincoln, we think he is a great president of America but he is a different name for me. When i was reading about himself first i did not know what a great man he is! It was about ten years when i read about himself first in a Bengali literature and in a Bengali language. In that time i was very surprise to know about him and read about his partial biography.
After that i become more interested to know about himself for that i start to read his full biography. In that time i was a depressed man and a unemployed person. I just have completed graduation from a college. My father retired from a school as school teacher. For that reason our family economic crisis started already because we have no other income source without my father. It seemed to be our family become bankrupt for various reason. So it's create lot of frustration in my mind and headed it me as a depressed man.
So in that time i get a mentor, i get a leader and i get a man who carry the goodness in his mind and greatness also. I read he was born in a poor family but it's can not down him as a fate. He started war against his fate. He had lot of interest about gathering knowledge for that he read almost every books of the libraries surrounding 40 miles distance from his home. What a fire! It's inspire me to read lot of book and understood me about the power of knowledge.
In that time people called me stupid or idiot. I read Abraham Lincoln was like a failed man before his age became 40. His story give me confident and courage to fight against my fate. It's create fire in my mind. Abraham Lincoln was a man who fight for established rights of black African American although he was a white man. What a greatness and goodness! What great work for a humanity! Great people of the history are like this. It's understood me in that early age, you will be great by not for doing yourself, you will be great by helping others.
At the end, i want to say, we do not see this kind of leader in today's world and in America also.who can change the world. At the end i want to salute this great man, human being, leader and president. He impact me lot in my life. Thank you Abraham Lincoln again and i pray for your soul from the bottom of my heart.
