At 75, my life felt empty after the loss of my daughter, Gianna. My son, Sebastian, was busy with his own family, leaving me in solitude. Everything changed when I met Julia, a young mother sitting alone by the roadside with her baby, Adam. She reminded me of Gianna, and I couldn’t walk past her.

However, one day, I caught her searching through my belongings, desperate for money for her gravely ill daughter, Aurora. Instead of anger, I felt compassion.

I asked “Then, what is your role?”
He said “My decisions are only for very big issues. , whether Britain should lift sanctions over Zimbabwe, whether Bodoland should be formed or not, whether Ronaldo should retire from Football, etc etc. and do you know,
