This wonderful man, going from imprisonment for 27 years to South Africa's president, awarded the nobel peace prize in 1994, displaying multiple acts and qualities of determination, belief, strength, tolerance and integrity is a man we can all remember and look to for guidance.
Not just for what was mentioned above. His multiple accomplishments and qualities already stated...yet also for one thing that was necessary to have to make everything he wanted happen : love. Love is the driving force that creates everything and anything, that changes everything and anything. His boundless love is an example of the power that we all have within in us.
The power to have and do what is rightfully ours, and to create miracles, change lives, a country even, maybe soon a continent and then the world.
If there is one take away that we can remember forever from this man, Nelson Mandela, is that with love anything is possible.
I am happy and grateful to have the opportunity to write about this man. And in more times to come.
"It always seems impossible until it's done." - Nelson Mandela
