Tweets and Quotes in Memory of Nelson Mandela
“Simunye – we are one.” Is a Zulu word and common blessing and mantra I heard over and over while living in South Africa. I lived in South Africa in 1997-1999 and traveled back and forth to there in the following years another half dozen times. My parents Bill and Beverley Gibson (originally from Nova Scotia) moved there in 1996 and now call South Africa home where my Dad does leadership and sales training for all kinds of South African organizations.
I feel privileged and blessed to have lived there during such an amazing time of transition and reconciliation. At that time Desmond Tutu sightings were a weekly occurrence for me in Sandton. In many instances I witnessed true reconciliation and acknowledgment between people in South Africa that I have yet to see here in Canada or anywhere else I have visited in the world. Here are some great quotes by Nelson Mandela Tweeted out from around – Rest in Peace Madiba:
