Choosing Love our Hate

 

Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in South African Prisons.  When he was finally released, he had every reason to feel bitter and to come out vowing to get revenge on those who unjustly    deprived him of his freedom.  Instead he came out smiling and seeking reconciliation with the leaders of the regime that had put him in prison.  He went on to become the cornerstone of a new South Africa.  If he had come out vowing revenge, who knows what would have happened?  In his autobiography, Long Walk Freedom, he tells us, ‘I knew that people expected me to harbour anger against whites.  But I had none.  In prison, my anger towards whites decreased, but my hatred for the system grew.  I wanted South Africa to see that I loved even my enemies while I hated the system that turned us against one another.  I saw my mission as one of preaching reconciliation, of healing the old wounds and building a new South Africa’

 

No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background or his religion.  People learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes naturally to the human heart than it’s opposite – Nelson Mandela
