Anis N. A. Mutlug Al-Haris Al-Zubair, partly educated, otherwise hungry, fully clothed. A lover of knowledge, wisdom, and philosophy, a patron of the sciences, a martyr of the arts (all 7). A believer in the power of the written word, and an advocate of the spoken one. A champion of justice (a mere myth). Appreciative of beauty, a sucker for love. Emotionally challenged, intellectually challenged, looking for a challenge. A driver, driving my way through un-passable obstacles while braking barriers. A rebel without a cause, rebelling without a pause, quietly but diligently.First and foremost a believer in the most high, Allah. A seeker, seeking my destiny, one step at a time. Running at full speed, yet standing still, staying silent. Not a leader but not a follower, Not a hunter and not a gatherer. Cheering for nature in the battle against nurture. Still evolving revolving involving then re-evolving, Ageing, changing, arranging my life for its second half, the ending half, the last half.
The absence of monotony and mediocrity in my life makes it not quit like any other, I’ve been a mechanic a salesman a project manager a computer engineer a detective a jeweller a public servant a social worker an athlete an event organiser an investment banker and an entrepreneur a leader and a follower, I have held all of these positions and handled their responsibilities as best as a mortal man could, but I have never been in the envious position where I could have herded sheep, although I have come close, but they where not sheep per se, life is unfair like that sometimes, although generally, life has been good to me, but the thing is that I haven’t been good back.
