In The course of my struggle
I tasted the pain of defeat
But never got discouraged
As I often pumped into victory
Amid the rocks of deception
I avoided stumbling upon perfidy
Never looking back in fear of enemy
Always moving forward with bravado
Building unbreakable walls of confidence
In the face of injustice justice should prevail
It should hide behind a bastion of valor
Never surrendering to the enemy of justice
Even if the soldiers of injustice out-number
Moment by moment and peice by peice, our lives are fabricated out of the external reality, and we become one with it. Save our heart, for if its true, the illusions of justice are what the wind blew.
It is with deep appreciation that I read this poem Abdi Noor. You are all that you say and a true patriot and devoted faithful man of honor.
I pray your country would take you as a leader.

Abdi-Noor, you are a victor, more than you recognise. You have remained strong, not releasing hope for the future, or hope in God. You have not given into hate or fear. You have been so strong, your faith has placed you amongst the mountains that cannot be moved by the winds.
Keep holding to God; that is where your strength comes from.
Timeless wisdom and advice on the art of living for today’s young and old: The art of thinking, the art of loving, the art of working, the art of leadership, the art of growing old.
