    Happy Birthday and Thank You

     

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Nelson Mandela,

     

    Father to South-Africa and also to so many other nations... 

     

    You are an example of determination and sacrifices, keeping the line you knew

    to be the only possible for a better future, doing so against all odds and with

    your own life at the stake. ...  Certainly you didn’t choose all which happened

    to you and your beloved ones, yet you never allowed these events and years,

    how cruel, unjust and endless they ever were, to move you in some pity and

    bitterness, away from your convictions. 

     

    ...  I dearly hope that you will still long enjoy healthy and fertile life in your family,

    in your charities, and also at inspiring people on planet earth...  ...may especially

    the lawyers listen well, to find and point out these needed keys which alone will

    make the laws to strengthen truth and reveal lies, so to starve and dismember

    the strongholds of racism and others death’ligious oppression, and multiply the

    effects of genuine brotherhood in humanity.  ...after all, isn’t all blood but red?...

     

    Thank to God of Truth to renew your strengths, and inspire you still, a father

    speaking truth, life, forgiveness, unto freedom, to many generations of

    fatherless children and especially men... Indeed your life made a change not

    only to your surroundings, but reached out all over the world...

     

    Long healthy and happy life to you, MADIBA of peace-brotherhood

     

    Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the

    tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. (Rev. 22:14 KJV)
