Nelson Mandela

  2. I was really shocked when I heard of his death yesterday morning. Although it was expected, he was so sick, that it's certainly better for him. He was an exceptional man and has changed not only South Africa but the whole world. We all appreciated him so much. I wish we had more men like him ! It's amazing that he became so old after the horrible life he had when he was in jail !

  7. So few people accomplished as much as he did despite having all those years taken from him. A true testament to the goodness that can live in the soul despite all obstacles.

  8. Even though the whole world knew he was very old and very sick, I think most people secretly harbored a belief that he'd go on for years yet.
    He is already greatly missed.
    Love, K
