I had no idea.. "This man was born in 1809. In 1816, at age 7, he was forced to work because his family was expelled. In 1818, he lost his mother. In 1828, he lost his sister. In 1831, he opened his first business and went bankrupt. In 1832, he stood in the legislative elections and lost. In 1833, he borrowed money to open another business and went bankrupt again. In 1835, he met a wonderful woman. He falls in love with her, they get engaged, and she dies. In 1836, he entered a dark period of his life: deep depression. He remains bedridden for 6 consecutive months. But he gets up. He gets up and in that same year of 1836 he runs in the legislative elections and loses again. In 1840 he presented himself as an elector; he loses. In 1842, he met the woman he would end his life with. They fall in love, get engaged, get married and she gives him 4 children and they lose 3 (three). In 1843, he appeared at the congresses and lost. In 1845, he appeared again at the congresses and lost again. In 1850, his son died. In 1854, he ran for the Senate and lost. In 1856, he ran for Vice President, he didn't even have 100 votes. In '58, he ran again for the Senate and lost again. And in 1860 ABRAHAM LINCOLN was elected President of the United States of America 🇺🇸. He was elected for two exceptional terms (he was assassinated in beginning of the second term.) He was one of the most respected and impactful Presidents in the history of the United States 🇺🇸. It's important to tell this story of perseverance because we see the hero, but we don't see the backstage of the afflictions. " Wow. ... I think this is a great example of Never Never Never Give Up! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
