Yesterday and forever
I thought about this yesterday and just wanted to not let the date go by without saying my own thanks to Dr. King and his legacy. Because my son and grandchildren are biracial, I have a special gratitude to any man or woman who works for healing in this area of so much tragedy and fear.
WHAT is written on King’s tombstone?
“Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty, I’m free at last.”

Deep Thought: One day one of my little nephews came up to me and asked me if the equator was a real line that went around the Earth, or just an imaginary one. I had to laugh. Laugh and laugh. Because I didn’t know, and I thought that maybe by laughing he would forget what he asked me.
Today I am grateful for: In-your-face nonviolence

Amen to that.
Let’s hope the dream continues….
We could sure use another MLK today with all the violence out there. It’s scary, and the violent kids just keep getting younger and younger.
