it is worked towards and achieved through perserverance, singularity of purpose, and an inborn decision to make a difference. Every man indeed is born with a seed of greatness... have a clear vision of who and what you want to be... set your strategies, be ready for challenges, but hold on to the plan till its realised.
The greatness of a man is not in the financial capacity of his pocket or treasure house...but in mental capability of his mind. Rich people have lived and died...embracing mother earth with non of their assets or physical achievements as accompainement. ONLY the legacy a great man lives behind, speaks for him and his generations yet unborn...and not his finances. The surest key to generational greatness and eternal legacy is " standing for what you believe " and "believing in what you stand for" . A perfect reflection of this absolute reality is the Great Nelson Rahlilahla "Madiba" Mandela.
Nelson Rahlilahla "Madiba" Mandela (1918-2013)
in an era where black supremacy was undermined, he stood and fought bravely for what he believed in, which was a fair and free society where white or colored citizens alike would be treated with zero level stigmatization and allowed equal priviledges.Bruised and battered by the "iron fists" of the anti black Social-Political system called " Apartheid ", He forged a war against this societal menace, stood his grounds, made his sacrifices, paid the price and today the whole world celebrates the life and times of Great madiba! This man who i choose to call the father of African freedom, liberation and emancipation, left indelible prints on the sands of time, and also on the thoughts, conceptions and perceptions of our minds. From the prison house to the office of the first black President of South Africa, he showed us that what ever is worth having, is worth fighting for. Africa, and the whole world should strive for greatness... as the key to eternal legacy lies not in your financial achievements, but in the power of your actions and the positive achievements you have attained. WE should come to the knowledge that there is much more to the lives we have been given, than those treasures we are seeking.Say NO to the monetary mediocricy proffesed and propelled by our socio econmic conditions, and say YES to a life of true meaning. Seek wealth, but for a reason, seek political power for a purpose.Change a life, touch a soul, make a name that would never grow old. Today, Madiba goes home, but the Legacy lives on. What do you live for?
