Day of Rememberance

January 18th, 2010 commemorates 
Martin Luther King Day.  

We have heard several times his most prominent speeches and quotes.  Words become unspeakable when trying to capitalize who he was what he meant and what he did.   I read a few quotes of his this morning as I started my day and these are the ones that touched me I meditated a bit on the in bold....


“Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or the darkness of destructive selfishness. This is the judgment. Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others? “


“Never forget that God is able to lift you from fatigue of despair to the buoyancy of hope, and transform dark and desolate valleys into sunlit paths of inner peace.”


“And whenever men and women straighten their backs up, they are going somewehere because a man can’t ride your back unless it is bent.”





A picture is worth a thousand words....
