A True Leader - For the Common Good

I have the utmost respect and admiration for Winston Churchill.

Churchill was a true great leader, one who had full conviction in his beliefs and his nation even when all others doubted him, one who stared at both victories and defeats in the face and never flinched, one who was able to accept less than desirable circumstances but who doggedly pressed on for the common good, one who never wavered from duty, one who put in his very best till the very last, one who walked his talk, one who was with his men and people, one who had never lost sight of the final goal of victory, and one who never once lost faith. Indeed Churchill was one who rose to the challenge of the hour and rallied his nation to the cause.

The leader of his generation, Churchill was the last of the Greats who exuded style, sacrifice and selflessless. His determination and grit, his words and speeches, his optimism and hopes - they moulded and epitomised that bright shining moment of a nation. It was his and their finest hour.

Churchill is to me a constant source of inspiration for one to press on, to continue with one's duty in all challenges and circumstances till the very end, and one finally pronounces it 'Mission Accomplished ... The End'.
