MOTHER AFRICA How do you say goodbye to TATA MADIBA

How do you say goodbye when there is no one left to emulate Such a great force has departed from us today 15th December 2013 Who or whom can you even compare his nature and nurture to? He is gone and departed leaving a huge footprint The heart, my heart feels likes its been stung and prickled with a trillion needles The heart, my heart is filled with deep sorrow and sadness There is no way to compare the events of today He has departed with huge footprints to fill Although he rests in a peaceful place, will the world continue to be as peaceful? Will we learn from today and not yesterday,in order to shift towards becoming greater people We will continue to carry the torch he has passed onto to us, or will we let it fall? Will we feel courageous enough to keep going with the same magnitude? Will we be strong enough to continue to carry his strong force? Will we continue to be passionate enough to learn from today, in oder to succeed and become his successors in life? Will we be generous enough to stop still and realise, we do not need to look for another person to emulate, because we already had that person? Will we understand what he has instilled in us, to be able to achieve greater good? Will we feel comfortable to just be watchers and none active participants in our own discourse in life, as well as in our communities? Can we MOTHER AFRICA take a moment to stand still, feel the stillness of our hearts, and feel the deep deep sorrow? Now MOTHER AFRICA with all that you have felt look outward and beyond yourselves and recognise the OTHER By recognising the OTHER can you, we, us become one? Can we the people stop just being the ME & I and become a WE & US for the greater good Feel him deep down in the core of heart in order to shift the YOU, into the WE & US There is no one else who needs to be or do for us, we need to do for ourselves There is no need to be looking for others in order to do and become greater MOTHER AFRICA please do not drop the torch he has handed to US today. Yesterday is gone, today matters the most, tomorrow does not exist MOTHER AFRICA, hold his torch with all your might and do not let it falter, or waiver for generations to come MOTHER AFRICA recognise you need not to look to anyone, for you already had him and still have him in your souls to SHIFT THE WORLD MOTHER AFRICA, we your children are responsible for becoming greater from today MOTHER AFRICA although our TATA MADIBA has departed our earth today, his soul remains with us eternally and forever. Lets not let his vision, love for his people-US die
