Tyrese: We lost a man who
literally dedicated his life on making a difference….. His heart will still
beat for the world even in heaven…. Winnie and the family my deepest
condolences to you I’m sending my energy and prayers to you and your family…
Just know that while he was with us he SERVED his God given purpose and saved
millions whole doing so…. One of my favorite speeches here!!! “Our deepest fear
is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond
measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your
playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine
as children do. It’s not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let
our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the
same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically
liberates others. -Marianne WilliamsonAuthor, Lecturer#RIH ( Rest In Heaven.)

this picture to post because even after everything he went through he still
managed to share his joy | We have nothing to complain about | I’m sharing this
message because being on that island changed my perspective of freedom &
what to do with it | If you ever get a chance to visit Capetown South Africa
please visit Robbin island | Thank you Nelson Mandela for your sacrifices to
humanity | If you don’t know his story google it for yourself.

with love, And the fight for equality for all. I remember being touched &
