Nelson Mandela R.I.P.

    I know the last post was also about death but this is something that is not only celebrity news, but also world news.

    Nelson Mandela, a civil war hero, died on Thursday, December 5. I honestly didn't know much about him except that he was a hero. I want you, my readers to know about him. Many people have been calling him a traitor and terrorist. To see how these accusations are wrong and see the reasons go to: http://www.cnn.com/2013/12/06/world/africa/nelson-mandela-other-side/?c=&page=2

Nelson was also known for his very inspirational quotes. Forbes made a list that you can read: http://www.forbes.com/sites/mfonobongnsehe/2013/12/06/20-inspirational-quotes-from-nelson-mandela/

    He may be, in my opinion, one of the most influential people in history. We have lost a very important person who has changed the world for the better. He was a natural born leader. One day I wish to make an impact on people's lives like he has done for years.
