Pinto was born in Nairobi on 31 March 1927 to a Kenyan Asian family of Konkani Goan Catholic descent.

Born to immigrant Goan parents hailing from the Indian states of Goa and Maharashtra, his father was an official in the colonial government of Kenya while his mother was a housewife.

At age eight, he was sent to India for his education and spent the next nine years there, passing his matriculation exams at St. Joseph's High School, Arpora, and then studying science at Karnatak College, Dharwar for two years before joining the Indian Air Force in 1944 as an apprentice ground engineer.

When only seventeen, he started an agitation in Bombay against the Portuguese colonial occupation of Goa. His political activism soon made it necessary for him to return to Kenya to avoid being arrested and deported to the Tarrafal concentration camp in Cape Verde.

In 1949, Pinto returned to Kenya and, after a succession of clerical jobs, became involved in local politics aimed at overthrowing British colonial rule in Kenya. He turned to journalism and worked with the Colonial Times and the Daily Chronicle.

In 1965, while in the car with his daughter, Pio Gama Pinto was shot dead at very close range.

Building on this week's theme on boldness, we explore how powerful our imagination is in the face of fear.

Anytime we face our fears head-on, something magical happens, we become more. A part of us comes alive.

This is the story of this poster design. I feared getting into collage layout technic. I didn't know how and I was afraid of it not being good enough.

One poster layout and I've suddenly realized it was all in my head.

I've become more than I was yesterday.

Whenever we go through something hard, we tend to think that we did something wrong or we are just unlucky. We complain, regret or both.

This can't be further from the truth. Yes, we do make mistakes but life is not hard because we are so flawed that we can't seem to do anything right.

On the contrary, the friction we experience in our pursuit is meant to help us rather than destroy us. It builds perserverence that we'll need throughout the journey.

Part of the process is to accept that going after your dream won't be easy.

You'll need audicious BOLDNESS!
