Dec 5: The world is dimmer today

Nelson Mandela has died.  It was expected, how can it not be at 95 yo?  He has been in poor health, and it sounds like he suffered physically over the last couple years.

It should be the goal of all of us to leave the world a bit better by our existence, it is the most important thing we can do in our lives.  Nelson Mandela changed the world with his hope, his forgiveness of his oppressors and his idealism.  Few of us can hope to have the impact he did on millions of people, but we can use his lessons in our lives.

In respect and admiration for his life and spirit.....He now belongs to history.
