What is this chain? facebook.com!/ikelatif/posts/10151783542912561 I have some great heroes in my life one is Nelson Mandela; this is the chain that reminds me of his sojourn in Cooks Island prison. On Christmas Eve 1986, a South Africa prison commander responsible for watching over Nelson Mandela casually asked the world's most famous prisoner, "Mandela, would you like to see the city?" Mandela was completely surprised, but agreed. The prison commander, Lt. Col. Gawie Marx, promptly put Mandela in his car for a leisurely drive around Cape Town, one of the world's most scenic cities. By keeping this chain in the lobby; I pay tribute to a great man who I think epitomises freedom in its finest form in spirit and corporeal existence; we lesser people pass our life under the shadows of greater older and stronger banyans; that what makes us slightly different from the run of the mill kind of people, yadein insaan ka peecha kabhi nahin chortein .. Memories are our great treasure they never leave us! Iqbal Latif Epilogue: I have lived in a prison of inbred ideologues all my early life; this prison had also the high walls of old archaic antiquity built around me. I broke them and I celebrate my escape from the clutches and venomous fangs of my tormentors eve...ry day; I am always grateful that their 'madman' is out of their sane stinking prison that had not an iota of freethinking! They are extremely happy too that I not influencing their scriptural sanity! The difference is I celebrate. Amen — at Hyde Park.
