Who Do You wish to Be? Reflecting Over Nelson Mandela's Life
For the death of Nelson Mandela on December 5, 2013:
"We saw in him what we should seek in ourselves." ~ Jacob Zuma, President of Nigeria
NELSON MANDELA (1918-2013), one of the true legends from the 20th century, was a classic legend for the purpose he competitive, that he suffered, that he represented, and also for the uniqueness of his character - amongst other legendary characteristics. His legend was borne but not on infamy, but around the consistency of his courage, his wisdom, with the exceptional grace.
A poem on the man that we call, Twentieth century Hero:
Cometh the hour, cometh the person, Madiba saw what few might even see, He did what few would do, Combating Apartheid's oppression, Finally he brought his homeland to unity.
Winding back the time to 1948, who would have foreseen the era of the subsequent quite some years? Nearly 3 decades of imprisonment along with over two as President and ambassador of peace. He took a busted country in 1994 generating it whole in a few short years. And it also may be fair to mention that Africa isn't nation it might be today when he - or even a person like him - is not at the helm.
You will find something in Mandela that gets in our blood; the planning to be like him.
GOING PAST ENVY IN YOU AND ME
It is simply too straightforward to envy someone like Nelson Mandela - as much of his enemies have. He was an enigma from the best ways. When we turn President Zuma's quote upside down it could lead us in a fuller realisation of who we should be - as uniquely purposed and identified individuals.
"We saw in him might know about seek in ourselves."
What this quote does could it be invites us into Mandela so we might imitate his noblest personality characteristics. And maybe we got in him might know about seek in ourselves because we had Jesus in Mandela.
If we're to look at something from the mode of Mandela, the 20th Century Hero, you have to will first have to think about his life and meditate over what he did and the way he achieved it. We'll learned about his life. There exists a style of somebody who personified our creator Jesus on the national stage approximately anyone could. Yet he has not been without sin.
If we reflect on the legacy of Nelson Mandela, we've the opportunity take into ourselves who he was and who natural meats be. Do we see something in who he was we aim to be?
Today it's time being even more of who we want to become.
