The MLK Day Before MLK Day

Martin Luther King Quote MLK 1601427_450041615121656_1870181259_n--FB 10-9-14Next Monday January 19th. For many a day off to relax and shop. Because there’s lots of sales on MLK Day. But for some reason I don’t think that’s what Martin Luther King Jr. had in mind when he dedicated his life to helping others.

But Monday isn’t even the day. It’s today. This very day. January 15th.

Because this is the day 86 years ago that a man was born that gave his all in more ways than most of us will ever know. For people. For animals. For humanity. I’m not a Martin Luther King scholar. But I respect his efforts to make life better for all. It is a dream that still burns true today. Black. White. Grey. Green. Orange. Blue. Yellow. Red. All those colors and more. None were excluded.

His voice was silenced but his words were not. For all of us. Without definition. Today. And every day.

Thank you Martin Luther King, Jr. Thank you.
