We would like to say Happy Martin Luther King Jr Day!!!!!
The first time I heard the " I have a dream" speech I was maybe 9 years old. Growing up in the Caribbean, Jamaica to be specific I was aware of our national heroes and how essential they had been in our fight for freedom and independence but I was not aware of Martin Luther King. I could not have grasped the magnitude of that speech at such a tender age but I knew it was important based on the reaction of the adults around me years after this historic speech had been made.
Those words spoken on August 28,1963 in Washington DC will continue to speak volumes not just to the citizens of the United States of America but to the citizens of the world. We should all be seen as equals and continue to strive to realize the dream he so boldly declared!!!
"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
"Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase"
" I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear"
" Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity"
Much love& Walk good!!!!!
