“It always seems impossible until it's done.”

Reading the whole 600+ pages of his journey, it does indeed feels like an impossible long walk to freedom. All the struggle facing those trials, prison time, separations with family, underestimations, deceptions, and so on.

I like how detail Mr. Mandela writes about his story. Every little detail. From his childhood to his life during 27.5 years of prison. I can clearly see the shifting mind of your Mandela when he opened his eyes for the first time about the racism that happening around him. I also love how he always put small stories about his personal life. It's usually just a short one. But, it's deep, sweet and heartwarming somehow.

TBH, Politics is never my thing. I sometimes drifted away when reading this part (which basically most part of this book, for sure). But, the way he writes, it's so simple yet filled with emotions that makes it so easy to understand.
