I think it could also be a diary/journal (but its supposed to be personal, i'm not sure though).....

I'm not sure it is. A diary/journal doesn't fit as thin and colourful. And I don't think it qualifies as crinkle sad

this is what i think, The write-up is descriptive, and it explicitly states that the item is thin and colorful, holds the thought of yesterday and hopes of tomorrow (Ideas), holds images, speeches, words, and motion in a crisp and clear manner.

They also said bring an old version, which means what they described was the "newer version", and it is still in use for the above purpose. finally, the design has been re-modified to look different from the older versions (i doubt if it's a newspaper or magazine)

Then they used the word "copies", meaning it can't be money, neither can it be pictures.

My gut tells me it is a "CD", a CD is round-flat but thin, the face is colourful, and it stores ideas, pictures, words, speeches and motion.

Albeit, an old version of it is required. the one that looks like the image below.

(I might be wrong o, so if anyone has a better idea, please share)


I don't know sha but I'm thinking:

"can a CD really be referred to as Custodian of Dreams?"

The fault line in this proposition lies in the fact that it doesn't hold the thoughts of tomorrow... what is that thing that holds the thought of tomorrow..

After reading through and through it could be a passport they are asking for... it fits the descriptions given but on a second thought a curriculum vitae comes to mind too it can also. or probably a Bible.... Don't know what you guys think.
This was the first thing i thought too, but immediately they said come with an older version, Of speeches, of words, the thought relegated. A passport just doesn't fit anymore.

Depends on how you look at it, A CD might hold materials to keep your dreams afloat, Besides Custodian of dreams might just be figurative. what else could meet 80% of that description? and then they said older version.

When you think about it, Sahara usually ask candidates to bring something that has history, old but most importantly difficult to get. The only thing that fits is what i have posted in my opinion. If you have something else in mind, let's have it.

You guys have to note that they didn't say crinkles as a stand alone word, they said never ending crinkles. "My dictionary gave examples like "The old man's lined face crinkled into a smile". If the aforementioned​ was stored believe me it is never ending.

But then again the never ending crinkles might just have something to do with the item itself, that part made me skeptical, and i no fit say i am correct.

Hmmm, difficult but, depends on how you think about it. the fault line to me is the "custodian of dreams actually" the premises to support that is quite watery.

No the riddle doesn't say "never ending crinkles"


It says

"The wave of a hand, never destroying"

"Crinkles, Crisp and clear"

So d crinkle is on its own a description of the object

meaning something that is dry, in pieces and clear that waving your hand against it cannot destroy it. A pictures suits that description but old version is what I don't really get

If it was a picture, it'll definitely be a passport. why i don't buy into the pictures answer is because, the item is described to hold multiple things, pictures are just images.

The item should be

"of pictures, speeches and words with laughter that stays the same time and time again"


I'm not very sure a picture fits this

So what is it that holds multiple things, instinctively a picture captures everything... remember the Albert Einsten quote, but a part of me feels that the riddle would be too simple if the answer came so easily.... i would suggest we move this question to the literature section in order to gain valuable insights from individuals who have constantly refined their imaginative abilities... and we should do that early incase it turns out to be something that might be difficult to get...

i did some googling in other to see how different riddles were solved and decided to share simmilar riddles with answers that can help us shappen our thinking process on this issues:

Using me, battles are never fought alone. With me, bonds are never broken. Reveal my identity.

No You are a fine mug of ale.
Yes You are Loyalty.
No You are an army.

Consume me and you will choke, but within me is the key to life and growth. What am I?

Yes You are earth.
No You are a slain animal.
No You are money.

I can be found on a mountain, yet you can hold me in your hand or walk over me. I will outlive you. Name me.

No You are air.
No You are a song.
Yes You are a rock.

I come for all who grow, crawl, and walk. I am the perfect hunter. In the end, I am the victor. What is my name?

No You are a legend.
Yes You are death.
No You are the future.

I erode rock, break bodies, and consume cities. Yet, I am necessary for survival. What am I?

No You are a conquering army.
No You are an earthquake.
Yes You are water.

I feast on air, but drink no water. I have no eyes of my own, but without me, you are blind. What am I?

No You are a tree.
No You are a bird.
Yes You are fire.

I move without legs. I push without arms. I speak without words. I howl without a mouth. What am I?

Yes You are wind.
No You are a war cry.
No You are music.

You can burn me, build a home from me, and carve me. There are countless ways to use me. Tell me my name.

No You are fabric.
Yes You are wood.
No You are bone.

From pain and a scream, I bring newness into the world. From me, all legends begin. Reveal my name.

No You are the sunrise.
No You are a dream.
Yes You are birth.

Your hand cannot contain me. Your eye cannot see me. I am fleeting when held, but you can catch me if you stand still. What am I?

No Time.
Yes Breath.
No Hope.

I am beautiful in the winter sun, but brutal to the touch. I am a danger overhead and underfoot. What is my name?

Yes You are ice.
No You are steel.
No You are the teeth of my foe.

I will devour you from the inside out. I must be conquered every day, or I will take your life. Only in death can you stop me. Who am I?

No You are the wind.
Yes You are hunger.
No You are my enemy.

I blind hunters, frighten children, and no door can keep me out, yet each night I return. What am I?

No You are a leopard.
No You are sleep.
Yes You are darkness.

Cultivate me and I will grow. If you are worthy, I will become something that will last forever. Speak my name.

Yes You are a legend.
No You are a statue.
No You are laughter.

Yeoja:


I agree that it is the newer version that is being described (missed that!)
A CD is thin and colourful *
Is crisp that is firm but breakable*
Is clear*
Can hold memories etc as stated*
Crinkle is what i dont think matches the CD
However, if an explanation comes up for the Crinkle description it could be a CD.
The older version could be the picture you posted or a floppy diskette since they are both storage devices.
What do you guys think?

PS: Yes i woke up early for this lol


Perhaps this could solve the crinkle part?

I have two options , a CD or a Passport photo.. the only description that doesn't fit the CD is the "crinkle" tbh. Everything else is apt

Neither does a passport hold the thoughts of tomorrow... a passport probably doest have an old version(partially)...
Re: Sahara Group Graduate Program 2017 by jamestry: 10:20am On Mar 11, 2017
Well,I also think its a picture(a picture depicting some level of boisterous activity) or an old Passport photograph.

But then, do they want an old copy that is crinkled or an old copy that is recreated?

Are they requesting for two of the same picture or two different pictures?
