Happy Birthday Dr. Martin Luther King Jr
Today is a day to celebrate the birth and dream of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Today is about much more than parades and being off of work and school. Its about taking time to reflect. Look at all that can be done when someone has the vision and determination to make a change. One person can truly make a difference.
It’s great to see everyone come together to help Haiti. I don’t think race is even considered with all the devastation that has occurred. I have seen people of all race, gender, and religion do whatever they can to help. To think that this may be a completely different outcome if things hadn’t changed is scary.
I’m not going to pretend that racial issues don’t exist today, but there has been progress. And to think it all began with a dream…
