IMAGINE TWO WORLDS

On February 27,1972 about 350,000 babies were born into this world.

Some were born Nigerians, Canadians, Tunisian, Americans, and other Indians. While there certainly a difference of location, race and family history they all had the same start. On the same day, they all began living.

It was the same thing that happened on February 27, 2019. It was also the same thing that happened on your birthday. Forget it, you're not the only whose birthday is 25 April. In fact, if you think about it very well, the reason why you feel the special day is exclusively yours is that your life is one of the most remote in the world. No one else apart from your family and friends knows that that day is your birthday, too.
Prof. Pius Adesanmi

On the day I was born, about 350,000 other babies were also born in different parts of the different. Right now, I don't know anyone else that was born on the same day. Over the years, some died while they were 1 other while they were 5 years and others while they were 11. On average, over 150,000 people die every day. Some of my birthday mates fall within these statistics every day. Some may be part of the statistics tomorrow, maybe even me.


Amongst the 350,000 babies born on February 27, 1972, was Pius Adesanmi. On March 11, 2019, he was amongst the 150,000 people that died. Despite dying in a plane crash that killed 157 people, his absence was deeply felt and he was mourned globally.

Between February 1972 and March 2019, Pius Adesanmi had illuminated the world that his absence created a tear in the face of the universe.
History is a burial ground and the tombstones with marks are reserved only for those whose light has shone.

From Albert Einstein to Nelson Mandela, the theory that those whose light has shown have shaped our world has been proven.

I am dying, and so are you.

Imagine two worlds, one with you and the other without you. What's the difference? Maximize the difference.

The difference between these two worlds is determined by how much you let your light shine. You're entitled to excellence and greatness
