When I think of Martin Luther King Jr... I automatically correlate him with the word FREEDOM & EQUALITY, because ultimately that is all he wanted. Beyond just wanting it, he was a man who was not afraid to put up a fight....but a fight for rights driven without the intentions of violence or hate. He defined his strength through courageous efforts where love and equality remained the center of what he was fighting for.
This day...in honor of MLK is a reminder to myself to always continue fighting hard for what I believe in. That absolutely any obstacle can be overcome, because there is no such thing as giving up. We all have the tenacity to fight through difficult situations. It is not only in the good times, but more so the bad times that help to build and define our character. It is through bad times where we find strength. Take a stand! Make a difference! Have a voice!! And remember to always do it with love and grace! Respect & Blessings to ALL!!
“If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”“Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.”
