Today the world stopped to honor Nelson Mandela at a stadium in Soweto, near Johannesburg, South Africa. President Obama and Michelle attended with former President George W. Bush and his wife. Also in attendance were President Robert Mugabe from Zimbabwe and Raul Castro from Cuba. Obama and Castro shook hands. Desmond Tutu chastised the crowd for being rude and said a prayer, partly in Afrikaans. All in all, the service reflected the love and the sacrifice made by this man and the blessings that come from his noble struggle. I think the lesson for recovery is that time is long and perseverance is key. Also, it is good in the end - if it is not good, remember that it is not the end.
