#9 Inspiration - The night before her death, a mother wrote this letter to her daughterToday I am sharing a letter with you written by Milada Harakova. Milada was found guilty of "high treason" following a show trial that was broadcast on national radio, and she remained defiant.  On June the 8th of of 1950, nine months after being arrested by the Czech secret police, on suspicion of leading a plot to overthrow the Communist regime, Milada was found guilty. Despite international outcry and a petition signed by Albert Einstein and Winston Churchill, Milada was executed at Prague's Pankrac Prison.I was so inspired when I heard about this letter on the Jocko Willink Podcast that I felt compelled to share this with you today.I found a copy of Milada's letter at http://www.lettersofnote.com/2012/09/i-shall-always-be-with-you.html
