I met a truly inspiring man this weekend. An intelligent, educated, eloquent, passionate and funny man, not to mention an amazing story teller, who shared a bit of his life with me. Growing up in Cape Town, involved in the Nelson-Mandela-activism of their time, he explained to me the difference between a coloured man and a black man.

For what I think was the first time in my life I felt like I was in the presence of someone truly GREAT - someone who commandeered your attention in the best way possible. It got me thinking... either there aren't that many like this man in the world, or I have a lot more of the world left to see.
