Why I choose this character

His life has one major lesson to learn and that is, don't allow any condition or circumstance limit you. He showed us that we are our greatest limitation.

Most times we feel we could not do this and that because of this and that. From his life we would see that everything is possible if we look inside and not outside.

conclusion

Dickens died from stroke after the train accident he had during hia travel with the train. It was said that he never recoverd from that accident 5 years before hia death.

He was buried at wesminster Abbey. A lot of mourner where present at his grave site. His death was discribed as a wide world event.

At his death is was discorvered that he left a novel titled the mystery of Edwin Drood unfinished.

It is obviously it

Charles Dickens
Enlightening indeed

Shout Out to @steemalive for this 🙌

This is really impacting, he never finished school and yet he was able to achieve his dreams. This shows that there is no limitation on whatever we want to do, once we make up our mind to do something we will do it. "The mind is the man"

Oliver Twist—— I want some more…. Lol I can never get tired of that. Nice one and thanks for bringing back memories

Hi @jovita30
its good to know that Dickens was the person that wrote Oliver twist I read it and it is a beautiful work that was widely accepted world over.

Thanks k you for this review.

I really enjoyed reading his book on Oliver Twist back in the days. Natural intelligence is not gotten in the classroom or by a degree it is gotten as its name implies"naturally". It is a state of the mind. Thank you for your wonderful write up.
