Mandela

Yesterday we took a little drive up to the north shore. Only very few people live on this side but there's something really magical about this part of the island. From the vibrantly green mountains, to the rocky cliffs and a few white sand beaches in between this place has a unique way of making you feel welcomed by it's organic nature.

While we were visiting, I heard news of the passing of Nelson Mandela and found it to be very ironic that I had run across this natural heart engraved rock at that time. Mandela was symbolic of freedom and equality and has taught us that it is possible to create a lasting change through first making the change within ourselves. “No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”  This courageous man has influenced not only his nation but the world. May we strive to continue his legacy and never forget what he stood for. 

Open your hearts and share the love..

“There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.”

May he rest in peace.
