“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling but in rising every time we fall.” Nelson Mandela.
Standing right behind me is a man who inspired me the most, I remember it like yesterday, but it was many years ago when l first heard the great story of this Legendary leader. The fact that he’d spent 27 long years of his life in prison, then came out to be president of this great country, and to be recognized as the world’s greatest leader. THAT IS PHENOMENAL.
Well I don’t remember exactly how old I was when I first heard that, But it totally changed the way saw life right there, It made me completely fearless, and It made me see life as worthy of living it temporarily as a prisoner of my God-given VISION only, it taught me right there that no amount of time is enough to declare failure on a worthy pursuit, I knew then that whatever I’m believing for, that God has put in my heart, I was due to get there in time.
I was a teenager then, and He had set me on a greater path. To never be a prisoner of a life that’s not worthy. But to be a prisoner of a life that I know I’m capable of living.
“There is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that’s less than the one you are capable of living”. NELSON MANDELA.
I am so honored to be here today.
