When Nelson Mandela was studying law at the University, a white professor, whose last name was Peters, disliked him intensely.
One day, Mr. Peters was having lunch at the dining room when Mandela came along with his tray & sat next to the professor.
The professor said,
"Mr Mandela, you do not understand, a pig & a bird do not sit together to eat"
Mandela looked at him as a parent would a rude child & calmly replied,
"You do not worry professor. I'll fly away,"
& he went & sat at another table.
Mr. Peters, reddened with rage, decided to take revenge.
The next day in class he posed the following question:
"Mr. Mandela, if you were walking down the street & found a package, & within was a bag of wisdom & another bag with money, which one would you take ?"
Without hesitating, Mandela responded, "The one with the money, of course."
Mr. Peters , smiling sarcastically said,
"I, in your place, would have taken the wisdom."
Nelson Mandela shrugged & responded, "Each one takes what he doesn't have."
Mr. Peters, by this time was about to throw a fit, seething with fury. So great was his anger that he wrote on Nelson Mandela's exam sheet the word "IDIOT"
& gave it to the future struggle icon.
Mandela took the exam sheet & sat down at his desk trying very hard to remain calm while he contemplated his next move.
A few minutes later, Nelson Mandela got up, walked up to the professor & told him in a dignified polite tone,
"Mr. Peters, you signed your name on the sheet, but you forgot to give me my grade."
😂😄😆😩
Don't mess with intelligent people....pass it on to your intellectual friends....
#MANDELA May the Lord give us knowledge to respond to our haters, don't hate back but apply wisdom!

U HAVE NOT SEEN ALL THE WORK IV'E DONE HERE ON STEEMIT in the short while iv'e been here... & im pretty sure you've never upvoted one post of mine.... but this.. i can tell its what you live to do!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
"BUT MY MOTHER SENT ME THIS POST"
Are you suggesting that you believed that your mother has written it?
(rhetorical question)
We must have heard this infantile fairytale tens of times.
"My brother", "my friend", "my grandpa", "papa smurf" sent this to me so it is not plagiarism.
It's your responsibility to check up content that you post.
"because you like mr peters.. probably hated every bit of this story... as i can clearly see"
We don't know who that "mr peters" and we don't care.
"U HAVE NOT SEEN ALL THE WORK IV'E DONE HERE ON STEEMIT in the short while iv'e been here"
It is irrelevant what work you have done. It does not give you a right to steal someone else's writing and post it as own (aka plagiarism).
I will look through your account.
"im pretty sure you've never upvoted one post of mine"
Steemcleaners do not upvote anyone's posts.
" i can tell its what you live to do!"
You seem to be completely clueless and ignorant about the work that Steemcleaners do as well as what is being frowned upon by the community on Steemit.
dude... thx.. but this is not my life.. just a site i'm learning about after being introduced by someone... if you've been on here for years.. please don't expect me to know what you know in 2 months... & its funny.. because i only posted it from being inspired,.,, but the fact u could call my tryth.. infantile.. just shows me how u think... i'm not on here begging for anything... im a musician who chooses to use this site for the obvious benefits... not to attract hate, naysayers or bullies who think they have an upperhand because they're a dolphin in a huge ocean... just chill... i'll go bak to posting ny music links so i could be left alone .. & seen only in a positive light... some ppl only look for negative things to criticize... never anything good made mention of/// ANYHOW... U TAKE CARE!!!! & THX. I Did learn something... i just don't have the time to cram all the info at once... so.. just help me grow.. or let me be.. & enough with your judgements.
No problem, just please be careful when posting content that is not yours as you may post plagiarism which is not welcome by the community here.
Love this mi chargie
