Obama: Mandela 'took history in his hands' and wrought justice

President Barack Obama paid somber tribute to Nelson Mandela Thursday, celebrating the late South African leader’s “fierce dignity and unbending will” and unquenchable thirst for justice.

“For now, let us pause and give thanks for the fact that Nelson Mandela lived — a man who took history in his hands and bent the arc of the moral universe toward justice,” Obama said in the White House briefing room.

“He achieved more than could be expected of any man. Today he's gone home, and we've lost one of the most influential, courageous and profoundly good human beings that any of us will share time with on this earth,” Obama said. “He no longer belongs to us; he belongs to the ages.”

Mandela, who was 95, died from complications of a recurring lung infection.

"His journey from a prisoner to a president embodied the promise that human beings — and countries — can change for the better," Obama said.

The president also recalled the personal connection he felt to Mandela, and the antiapartheid campaign that fueled the young American's political passions.

"I am one of the countless millions who drew inspiration from Nelson Mandela's life. My very first political action — the first thing I ever did that involved an issue or a policy or politics — was a protest against apartheid. I would study his words and his writings," Obama said. "The day he was released from prison it gave me a sense of what human beings can do when they're guided by their hopes and not by their fears. And like so many around the globe, I cannot fully imagine my own life without the example that Nelson Mandela set. And so long as I live, I will do what I can to learn from him."

In his 1995 autobiographical “Dreams From My Father,” Obama had described Mandela as something of an idealized father-figure — inspiring him and filling the void of his absent Kenya-born parent.

"It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela," he wrote. The two men met in 2005, when Mandela visited Washington, and Obama was a junior senator.

Patriots live game!!!!

Today was the BEST day. And I have the best fiance in the world. So, I have been a Tom Brady/Patriots fan for the past 10+ years. But have never seen them play live. So Mohit surprised me with tickets to the Patriots/Jets game today, 5TH ROW Pat side, I mean we were almost on the field, behind the Patriots goal line/near their bench. I saw Tom Brady real life, up close, and it was surreal. I couldn't believe he and the team were in front of me. The whole experience and game was surreal. I have been to live NFL games before, but I have not seen the Patriots/Brady play, and it was the greatest experience ever esp because my fiance does not even like football nor care for Brady, but took me for my happiness, as this once in a lifetime opportunity I seriously don't even care we lost in OT. I am super happy and on an adrenaline rush/high and so blessed - Mohit is the best 4 months until M-day!!! (Marriage/Wedding day) :-) :-) :-)

Myrtle Beach Wedding Weekend!!!

Lots of ups and downs this weekend, starting with a rude overcharging ($) airline (#spiritairlines #worstairlineever) who sent our bag to another city, while I flew to Myrtle Beach to attend my cousin-brother's wedding with absolutely nothing except my purse. Talk about #improvising. After a very long 24 hours, we finally got the bag back, and now I am filing a claim to hold the airline responsible for everything we went through, from emotional to physical to financial (had to shop the day of the wedding). But I saw my cousin-brother get married, hung out and danced with 200 of my family and friends, and my fiance met everyone, and we had a blast, so all in all, a fabulous weekend Oh and I got my hair done at a salon and pretty much fell in love #weddinghairtrials — in Myrtle Beach, SC.
