FUTURE GENERATIONS WILL PASS A HARSH JUDGEMENT ON A GENERATION THAT LOOKED AT THE EVIDENCE ON HIV/AIDS, UNDERSTOOD THE CONSEQUENCES AND THEN CONTINUED ON A PATH THAT CONSIGNED MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF THE WORLDS’S MOST VULNERABLE PEOPLE IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA TO BEAR THE DISPROPORTIONATE BRUNT OF AN UNPARALLELED GENOCIDE.

IN ARISTOTELIAN TERMS, THE GOOD LEADER MUST HAVE ETHOS, PATHOS AND LOGOS. THE ETHOS IS HIS MORAL CHARACTER, THE SOURCE OF HIS ABILITY TO PERSUADE. THE PATHOS IS HIS ABILITY TO TOUCH FEELINGS, TO MOVE PEOPLE EMOTIONALLY. THE LOGOS IS HIS ABILITY TO GIVE SOLID REASONS FOR AN ACTION, TO MOVE PEOPLE INTELLECTUALLY.

EVERY LEADER HAS HIS SILVER TINT AND DARKER SIDE- KAMUZU HAD HIS TWO FACES, SO HAD MULUZI AND BINGU INEVITABLY SO. THREE MALAWIAN LEADERS, FUSED INTO ONE MELTING POT TO GROOM A FORMIDABLE DYNAMIC LEADER WHO COMMANDS NOT ONLY LOGOS BUT PATHOS AND ETHOS IN ARISTOTELIAN TERMINOLOGY.

GREATNESS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MORALITY. A LEADER GETS PEOPLE TO FOLLOW HIM. NAPOLEON LED THE FRENCH TO CATASTROPHE, BUT THEY FOLLOWED HIM ALMOST TO THE END. MARLBOROUGH AND WELLINGTON HAD GREATNESS. AND HITLER, UNFORTUNATELY. AL CAPONE WAS A LEADER IN A PRIMITIVE ENVIRONMENT.

COURAGE IS DEFINED: MENTAL OR MORAL STRENGTH; TO VENTURE, PERSEVERE AND WITHSTAND, DANGER, FEAR OR DIFFICULTY; TO RESIST OPPOSITION OR HARDSHIP, FIRMNESS OF THE MIND AND WILL, IN THE FACE OF DANGER OR EXTREME DIFFICULTY- THE WORLD AND EVERYONE AROUND YOU NEED TO SEE COURAGE IN ACTION.

UPON OCCASION, REVEAL A HARMLESS DEFECT IN YOUR CHARACTER. FOR THE ENVIOUS ACCUSE THE MOST PERFECT OF SINNING BY HAVING NO SINS. THEY BECOME AN ARGUS, ALL EYES FOR FINDING FAULT WITH EXCELLENCE---IT IS THEIR ONLY CONSOLATION. DO NOT LET ENVY BURST WITH ITS OWN VENOM---AFFECT SOME LAPSE IN VALOUR OR INTELLECT, SO AS TO DISARM IT BEFOREHAND. YOU THUS WAVE YOUR RED CAPE BEFORE THE HORNS OF ENVY IN ORDER TO SAVE YOUR IMMORALITY.
BALTASAR GRACIAM 1601/1658
[Spanish Jesuit]
WE CAN MASTER FEAR THROUGH ONE OF THE SUPREME VIRTUES……COURAGE…..COURAGE IS THE POWER OF MIND TO OVERCOME FEAR. UNLIKE ANXIETY, FEAR HAS A DEFINITE OBJECT WHICH MAY BE FACED, ANALYZED, ATTACKED, AND, IF NEED BE, ENDURED. HOW OFTEN THE OBJECT OF OUR FEAR IS FEAR ITSELF.
MARTIN LUTHER KING JR
NEVER APPEAR TOO PERFECT. APPEARING BETTER THAN OTHERS IS ALMOST DANGEROUS, BUT MOST DANGEROUS OF ALL IS TO APPEAR TO HAVE NO FAULTS OR WEAKNESSES. ENVY CREATS SILENT ENEMIES. IT IS SMART TO OCCASSIONALLY DISPLAY DEFECTS AND ADMIT TO HARMLESS VICES, IN ORDER TO DEFLECT ENVY AND APPEAR MORE HUMAN AND APPROACHABLE. ONLY THE DEAD CAN SEEM PERFECT WITH IMPUNITY.

WORD OF WISDOM
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered
Forgive them anyway
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives
Be kind anyway
If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies
Succeed anyway
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you
Be honest and frank anyway
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight
Build anyway
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous
Be happy anyway
The good you do today people will often forget tomorrow
Be good anyway
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God
It was never between you and them anyway
