Reading logs 5

Summary:
       There was an short interview with Nelson Mandela. He talked about himself. He was a extraordinary man, but not a superman. He also had shortcoming. He was a disobedient youth, a neglectful husband, and a distracted father. He had married for 3 time. He said his life was amazing. However, he said:'' I'm not messiah.'' He gave millions of South Africans peace. People said:" The old government did not care about us. People feel that that government did not belong to us." When Mandela became the precident. Everything had changed. Though People were not rich, but they became happy. They could dream about the future, how good they would be.

Reaction:
       Not a person can be perfect. Though Mandela did something bad for his wife or his children, he did great things to the country. He will be remembered by history. Up to now, I have finished this book, Tree Sharker the Story of Nelson Mandela. I hope my reading log is helpful for you guy to know about this book and this great leader.

  2. Even thougoh Nelson Mandela is a successful leader, he have some shortcoming in his special life. You said a lot of facts about Mandela's life, but I have some questions here. Do you think it's easy to balance between personal and working life? Also, do you think it's fair that history will not forget about Mandela's success as a leader and forget his failure as a husband and father?
