One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being able to greet former President Nelson Mandela at his funeral walking alongside one of my best friends .I was honoured to have attended his funeral baring to the public , and this was a remarkable ,very sad and inspiring moment in my life . It inspired me to become greater better stronger faster and truly realise that small dreamers are for mediocre people .
