“You can kill the dreamer, but you can’t kill the dream.”
Today, we as a nation honors Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Dr. King has some well known quotes that we recycle year after year. Words that we should all live by, but only get toted out at the same time every year. Not much as changed from his time here on this Earth til present day. We are still in the fight for equality. This nation, and many others, still have an unprecedented amount of people living in poverty. We are still a nation divided. We are still at war. His dream has not been realized.
I decided to use some of his lesser known quotes this year. Quotes that pertain specifically to the individual. Quotes that make you re-evaluate who you are and who you want to be. Change happens within ourselves and we then go out and change the world.
“If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.”
“My obligation is to do the right thing. The rest is in God’s hands.”
Let’s not live these words, honor Dr. King’s legacy and celebrate our unity only on this day. Let’s strive to live lives of service, greatness, acceptance, peace and love each and every day. I’m not on my high horse, I am speaking to myself as well. It is not too late to make his dream come true. Be well and whole. Much Love 🧡 💚
