if not now then when?


"the wold's greatest politicians"
If not now then when? was a question asked by my childish mind according to the elders, when I express my passion for politics at a tender age immediately after completing high school.

Since I completed high school I struggled with securing a career in politics. I worked hard but some people were there to suppress my efforts. Anyways that's the game of politics, survival of the fittest, and ambush in the night. Instead of appreciating wisdom some people are there to destroy it. They always told me am still immature, my time will come. If not now, then when? I argued. "The future is not on our hands, it is unpredictable. we may think we know how things will go, but things rarely turn out exactly as we predict (often not even close)." However, that made me even more wise and know that there will never be the right time in this universe except now. If you wait for the right time its like waiting for Jesus, that time will never appear. Generations and generations will pass while still waiting for the right time.

Its now or never. The history of greatest politicians and leaders proves that the world's greatest leaders like Winston Churchill were trained from childhood. The everyday risks they encounter made them strong continuously. Every big thing was once a small thing. The question if not now then when? was indeed by breaking through into politics at a tender age.
