The Existence of MBE

When I came across the site of Jonathan Danos, this was the statement that grasp my attention: Continuing to seek export opportunities in the region and other related opportunities.

Well, almost all people are looking for opportunities. What’s great about Jonathan Danos is, he doesn’t just look for an opportunity to help his own self. He seeks for opportunities to help other people.

Jonathan Danos, an MBE, received his award after doing his services on British Exports to Central and South America. He isn’t just lucky to receive the MBE award. He really deserves this MBE award because of what he has done in the past and of his continuing projects that certainly help people.

Therefore, if you’re thinking that having the MBE award is very impossible nowadays, trash that belief. Jonathan Danos is a living proof that noble people like him really exists. And if you can’t still believe, try visiting his site to see his diverse achievements with your own eyes•Jenn Besonia

Diverse Reasons to Receive MBE Award

MBE, the acronym for My Bloody Effort (according to the cynics in the civil service) are people who are members of the British Empire. But, you should mind that “a bloody effort” isn’t necessary to have this award. Jonathan Danos, a UK resident is one of these noble people who has the order of MBE.

Although MBE like Jonathan Danos seems to be the most noble part of the British Empire, it is not the highest rank in it. Knight Grand Cross (GBE) or Dame Grand Cross (GBE) is the highest. Following are (in decreasing order) Knight Commander (KBE) or Dame Commander (DBE), Commander (CBE), Officer (OBE) and the least in the rank is the MBE.

According to John Lennon, most people receive the MBE award for their heroism in war. He even called it “for killing people”. And he said the entertainters deserve this award more. But I don’t think those who receive their award for heroism in war is directly associated to “killing people”. Killing is very differnt from defending.

There are diverse reasons for receiving this award and there’s no better or worse among these, as shown by Jonathan Danos.

Jonathan Danos received his own in 2000. Her Majesty the Queen gave this award to him for services to British Exports to Central and South America.

No doubt, Jonathan Danos is the man who should be imitated for his being noble.•Jenn Besonia

Passion for Horse-Riding

Modern equestrian competition is a life-style game.

This statement’s one of the beliefs of a group called Long Riders’ Guild. Yes, I love the belief too and it somehow inspires me to try this “modern equestrian competition”. The group is composed of people who have the passion and love for horse-riding in their long journeys and Jonathan Danos, who studied spanish in Madrid, is one of these wonderful people.

Jonathan Danos is also one of the people who view the above belief in a positive way. Sadly, most people translate it into negative–humiliation and disappointment. However, for Jonathan Danos, equestrian is not like this. It’s more of a travel, and not a game. You need to learn new techniques that will lead to your own success and not to the distraction of other horse-riders. Yes, success without affecting other people is one of the great things that Jonathan Danos believes in.

Now I know you’re becoming more and more interested to become a part of this Long Riders’ Guild. But just like any other club, Long Riders’ Guild set qualifications too.

The most important qualification to become a member of this group is you need to be someone who can continually ride a horse for at least 1,000 miles. Be like Jonathan Danos. His love for travelling doesn’t make him tired despite of continuous horse-riding•Jenn Besonia

Horse-Riding's Adventure and Fun

There’s no doubt that adventure is always part of our lives and for some people, riding horses on long journeys is one of the best adventures that ever existed on Earth. Because of this, Long Riders Guild was created, hoping to have more members who are hooked into horse-riding.

Jonathan Danos, born in Cyprus, is one of the members of Long Riders Guild who have travelled from one place to another while riding horse. Surely, for Jonathan Danos, riding horses is not just a hobby. It could be useful too. Through this, travelling would surely be more fun.

Jonathan Danos is also one of the Long Riders Guild’s members who believe that equestrian travel is not a game. Violence and conflict are not allowed. This simple “rule” of riding horses for journeys is very different from having competitions. It is more safe, it is more friendly. Personal excellence is the main goal of Long Rider’s Guild and Jonathan Danos is one of those horse-riders who have achieved this goal.

Undoubtedly, members of Long Riders Guild are men of adventure and fun, just like Mr. Jonathan Danos•Jenn Besonia
