I just watched the film "Invictus" again and realized that Nelson Mandela just celebrated his 92nd birthday on July 18th. What a life he has lead. He spent 27 years in prison in a tiny cell yet his priority since his release in 1999 has been reconciliation. The movie highlights the character and solid inner strength of the man. One of Mandela's inspirations throughout his prison term was the poem "Invictus" by William Ernest Henley. Happy Birthday to a man whose life is an inspiration.
