Our hero from today episode is humble, stoic and brave.
He’s a guy who was born in 1945 in the North Side of the Island, in a place call Ponta Delgada. A man who was born into extreme poverty, who had everything to go wrong with is life. His name is, not Superman but António Justino Ferreira.
As it is written at the beginning of his book “António Justino never surrendered to the fate of what he encountered in life and soon began to chart his destiny […] still very young, upon discovering that he did not have his luck, he picked up a knife and He traced his destiny in the palm of his hand.”
Life was never his allied. Quite the contrary! Many of us couldn't handle 1/3 of what António handle and overcome. A true David!
He showed us time and time again that it is in the desired difficulties that we find the glory of victory, even though the victory is not always the thing we think it is.
