Introduction

The history entails a lot of lessons and moral examples for every being on earth. Now it entirely depends on the individual if he wants to take a lesson from the instances occurred in history and employ them in his life, or simply ignore those connotations, and opt to move on in life quietly, as he has been living.

However, if that individual is certain about his potential, capabilities and the natural endowments he bears; he will adhere to his fundamentals, fight against the system and all the adversities which are repelling him from his ultimate fate, that is, triumph. Such promising and growing beings are reserved as the most invaluable and priceless matter for not only the contemporary society, but also the upcoming generations. These individuals bring everyone, who earlier did not acknowledge their worth to conform to the significance and substantiality of their personality, existence and excellence (Fluker, 1998, p. 98).

Most interestingly, such individuals whom the society rejects, deeming as worthless or prevaricator, do not indulge themselves into the needless forceful confrontations with the authorities, rather they let their abilities, potentials and endowments speak for themselves, and prove their ...
