I just finished watching the movie "Invictus"....... What a truly inspiring attitude Mandela had - a lesson for us all. What an amazing event in History this was. A great movie to portray the whole story. I truly hope if you haven't seen it... you will.

  3. Yes, I agree with you both... I could watch it again and enjoy it just as much, too.
    And I certainly agree that Matt Damon did a great job.... Morgan Freeman is one of
    my favorites, too... portrays whatever character he plays very well! I am just so glad
    you both have seen it... It is one of those kind of movies you want everyone to see!

  7. That is what I was thinking too, Heather, when I was watching it.
    And Mandela's attitude toward people was so much like John's.

  12. It was wonderful. It was almost as if, by his believing it to BE so, MADE it so. Its like the philosophy of intention. Wow. And major chills up the spine to boot!

  15. I know,Mary... it is and true about the major chills as well!
    Thank you, Ronnie, I really believe I would enjoy watching more movies about him... will have to check that out!
    You won't get an argument out of me about that, Amalie...I so agree and if we had more leaders with an attitude like that they would truly become great leaders as well!
    It is so good to ear from each of you. Looks like I was just about the last to see this movie but I am so glad people are seeing/and saw it!! Everyone have a wonderful Sunday!
