Ms Bhutto's assassination is a tragedy to all things positive happening in the world. That being said it also brings about a new wave of sentiments in people wanting better things for themselves and the society.
In the case of this two special dancers, they too found they want to see the light of day for themselves. Life for any physically able human being is hard, but life challenged these two people - and those who are special out there - to face the ultimate challenge of courage and determination.
Success will be sweet for anybody who has come through; it is even sweeter for these people who fight against all odds, to become who they are.
By and large, this video serves as a good reminder - perhaps a visual resolution for the coming new year - that we can do and excel much better than before.
Everytime we think we can't get the colors right, or we have ruined a good day's work, think back about these people who persisted in order to be excellent.
And let's not forget that Sargent himself painted his subjects more than twice (i remember he painted a couple of sisters 14 times, am i correct?) in order to become that Sargent we all know.
Let's all remember this for ourselves.
