MLK Day

I am too young to have known much of Martin Luther King while he was alive.  I was nine years old when he was killed ... living the Army-brat life in Italy ... isolated from the turmoil in the US in the late 60s by culture and distance.

In my adult years, I have come to admire what Dr. King was ... and I wonder what further accomplishments he could have left behind.
 
Anyone who professes love and peace and understanding is someone that I hold in high esteem. 
 
Civil rights are HUMAN rights!
 
Bless you, Dr. King ... may we all do the best we can to live up to your Dream.
