There are a few moments in time, when history changes forever.
Friends who were adults at the time tell me that the assassination of JFK was one such moment, and I remember in my childhood as the world watched when a man first stepped on the moon.
The death of princess Diana was another such event.
It is hard to believe that it is only 20 years today that Nelson Mandela was freed from political imprisonment in South Africa.
South Africa has today been celebrating this event which changed and freed a nation.
Nelson Mandela demonstrates mankind at its best. Instead of bitterness he promoted reconciliation.
Today, 20 years on, I celebrate Nelson Mandela.
