Nelson Mandela

One of the greatest person of our time has past away and I am feeling really really sad.
He was one of the brightest politician of our time he passed away, his lantern has dimmed away and now, the world that was brighter because of him, seems cold and gloomy, all of a sudden.

Rip

He said 'There is no easy walk to freedom anywhere.' But he made it easier for many people.

I believe him to be the greatest statesman of the past two centuries.

By his force of character he wrought profound changes without the bloodshed that almost certainly would have prevailed without him.

Reconciliation indeed.

27 to Freedom

Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Mikhail Gorbachev and Nelson Mandela, they all have left a profound inheritance and welt of democracy, freedom and peace for us in this world for generations to come. My love and respect for them is indefinite .

R.I.P Madiba Nelson Mandela, your legacy lives on forever.

May he rest in peace... what an inspiration and what a strong leader. Haven't studied him much but am reading some of his quotes now... what a good man. Indeed, his legacy will be remembered.

It is a sad day for humanity...
I pray that some one will step up and continue on the path what he has started and find a place and time in the universe where Black and White shines bright, where Petals and Thorns spread grace equally.. ~~~~~smiles~~~~~

Thank you dear RM for starting this thread..

At least you can find a handful of people who appreciate humanity in this site. That is enough for me.
you welcome dear.

I read somewhere than Kanye West said he will be the next Nelson Mandela. He's already failed, as Mandela wasn't an arrogant man.

I've enjoyed learning even more about his life than I already knew. What a beautiful soul.

He also declared himself equal to Steve Jobs, Beethoven and God...
I wonder if he even knows which period of artistic style Beethoven is from?

"That is enough for me."
Im actually surprised that we have this many replies...
