What inspires us? Are there such things as miracles? Where do we find knowledge?
Hasan Kabir started asking these questions at an early age. He was born in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia into an Indian diplomatic family. After the partition of the Indian sub-continent and his father’s choice of becoming Pakistani, he alternated between Arabic and Catholic missionary schools with no equilibrium until he went to the renowned Burn Hall School in Pakistan.
Journey to Life is the story of a desert boy with no deep roots but connections everywhere. Hasan’s survival through many political and cultural changes such as the Iraqi revolution of 1958 and the emergence of Bangladesh as a nation in 1971. He served as a senior executive in Saudi Arabia and his many friends ranged from royalty to ordinary people. Throughout his long career he never lost his intellectual curiosity. Life was always an adventure, education his highway, and chance his constant companion. He and his family are living proof that, as Hamlet famously said, “There are more things in heaven and earth … than are dreamt of.”
