Weekly Photo Challenge: Madiba

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.” – Nelson Mandela

It is a year since Tata Madiba passed away. Never having had the privilege of meeting the great man personally I had to be contented with a photo of a poster taken at the memorial I attended last year, at the Nelson Mandela Centre for Memory in Johannesburg.

 South Africa’s national flower, the Protea’s pink petals form around the bud converging to the tip.

Named after the Greek god Proteus who could change form. There are many species of Protea.
