Happy 90th Birthday to Nelson Mandela, an inspiration to many, the man who made the dream of freedom for so many people become a reality. A legend by so many rights, imprisoned for the freedom of others, this man gave so much and still gives, his gift is the light in the darkness for many people, the candle that refuses to be extinguished within a windstorm, an individual who dared to dream and gave his own freedom for forty six years to make this dream come true, for the benefit of others.
He truly is and always will be the worlds hero, we owe so much to him and his unrelenting determination to stop all suffering.
I'm just taking the time to put this here because it's a matter of great importance that people pay respect to this wonderful and kind man.
Thank you for reading if you read it.

Amen Amanda! I can't believe he is 90! All the great humanitarian work he has done is just amazing. Bless him and his efforts!
Today is a great day for birthdays isn't it?
Hi Bubba here, Happy Birthday to a good man. I forgot about it.
Thanks for the replies to this topic Bubba and Mj
It's quite a shame though when people can't even take the time out to post a happy birthday message to a hero.
Just my pennyworth.

At least he got a full-blown birthday bash in London! I was watching the news this morning about that.
