One of the most famous men of all time, Mahatma Gandhi, and my first impression of him as I got to learn about him at school was that he was doing a hunger strike. I remember he was named “The Father of the Nation” in India due to his goal of leading India to its independence through nonviolent ways. I like #3 “Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.” #6 which is the seven deadly sins, is really new to me, but they actually make sense. Thanks for sharing!

Apparently, he was never awarded a Nobel Peace price. I read somewhere else that is one person the commission regrets never awarding. But he truly was honourable, a legend, one the whole world will forever admire and embrace forever.
