RT Trad West (@trad_west_)You think it's over? In 722 Spain had fallen under Muslim rule.300 Christian warriors prepared to make a last stand. They had no kingdom, no empire, only faith, iron, and courage.By 722 AD, the Umayyad Caliphate had conquered almost the entire Iberian Peninsula. Spain was gone.But in the rugged mountains of Asturias, a small band of Christian resistance fighters refused to kneel.Led by the nobleman Don Pelayo, 300 warriors took a stand in the Cave of Covadonga. They faced a Moorish ...

[music] The real action isn't the boom, it's the click. Happy day everyone. I am as mani of grade 8 here to spark a thought that might just change tomorrow.The moments that shift the future isn't announced on a giant screen or marked with a siren. It's the invisible ignition. the quiet, almost undetectable pressure that's building behind a simple thought.It's not shouting for your attention. It's simply waiting for you to strike the match and whisper the first word. What if. What if things could be differen ...

[music] Have you ever noticed that every great thing we enjoy today started with a simple what if. Electricity began with a spark. Planes took off with a sketch.Every dream, every invention and every moment is a possibility someone refused to ignore. Hello everyone, I am Aikt. Now imagine that same what if quietly lives within every one of us.All it needs is just one good moment of courage to take flight. This happened to me not too long ago during a school project. My friend and I had one of those argument ...

[music] What's your biggest fear. Close your eyes for a moment and think about it. Now, let me guess.Is it the fear of dark. Is it the fear of darkness or the fear of heights. For me, it was water.Yes, water, something that covers 70% of our planet, something we need to survive with, was my greatest enemy. I was 3 years old when I discovered my nemesis. My parents had enrolled me in swimming lessons, thinking it would be a valuable life skill.But there I stood at the edge of the pool, paralyzed with fear. T ...

Hello everyone. I'm Taka. This might surprise you, but I have something to confess.I'm a fool. Sorry if that shocked you. Let me ask you something.Most of people will answer no. But me, I will say yes, I'm a fool. In today's world, being a fool looks like a weakness.We admire people who are smart, careful, strategic. But what happens when we think too much. Some people freeze, some people hesitate, some people ask themselves like this.What if I fail. What will others think of me. But fools, we don't freeze. ...

Being real isn't about being loud. It's about being true when silence seems safer. When was the last time you all were completely yourself.No performance, no pretending, no pressure to impress. It's strange how long it takes to answer that because being real in today's world has become almost very rare. It's easier to get accepted for what we are not than to be loved for what we are in real.We filter our words, our choices, our views and even our laughing just to be get accepted by the others trying to matc ...

सबको नमस्ते। मैं आपको एक मजेदार बात बताना चाहूंगी कि जब मैं इस दुनिया में आई डॉक्टर ने कहा कि मैं जी नहीं सकती, मैं कुछ नहीं कर सकती। यह कह के मैं तिरस्कार किया। जब मैं स्कूल में थी तब मुझे कलभात मिला। जब मैं जो में थी तब मुझे करवा मिला तो मैंने उसे मिथास में बदल दिया। उसने मुझे गिराया तो मैं खुद उठी। जब मेरा कोई दोस्त नहीं था तो मैंने अपने आप को ही दोस्त बना लिया। जब मैं डरी लेकिन मैं डर के आगे बढ़ गई। ऐसे ही मैं मैंने अपने आप को मजबूत बनाया और कहा जो मैं कर सकती हूं वो आप सब भी कर सकते हो। आपको एक बात बता ...

[Music] Namaskar. Good afternoon. Imagine waking up one day to read your own obituary in the newspaper.Not that typical predictable boring obituary in which you are eologized as if you were a gift to the mankind but the one that calls you merchant of death. Merchant of death. Yes, that's exactly what happened to Alfred Noble.The man who invented dynamite. The man who saw himself rich, successful, someone changing the world, suddenly labeled a villain. Or picture this, a person hiding in jungle for 30 years, ...
