Today, only hours after the passing of Mr. Nelson Mandela, we
can look back on what he stood for and learn so much. If we learn nothing else,
let's take from his example that forgiveness is a gift that we give not only to
ourselves, but also to our children.
We live in a broken world. The choices we make about whether or
not to forgive people who wronged us in the past can either marinate our
children in bitterness as they spend their childhood in our homes, or give them
light and hope and a future. Let's, like the father of our Rainbow Nation,
choose freedom.
