Like millions of people around the world, I am someone who admired Nelson Mandela tremendously, and would like to see his life’s work survive as his legacy to the world.
Mr Mandela sacrificed almost 27 years of his life as a political prisoner and managed to learn how to move beyond anger and reprisal to truly talk forgiveness and walk forgiveness.
The greatest loss to the world, and to Mr Mandela, would be if we cease to learn from his example. If we forget his example.
If we, as a world, return to revenge and violence instead of following what Mr Mandela taught us: the path of forgiveness.
Whilst hearing the news about Mr Mandela’s passing, as I mourned his death, I had an idea, and I’d like to give that idea to the Mandela Foundation.
Mandela World Forgiveness Day.
