Today Is A Good Day to Dream
It is difficult in this world for one person to truly institute change and make decisions that will affect the entire nation. Our political system is set up to do just the opposite with the principle of checks and balances. But there have been individuals that have left a footprint on the heart of this country and today we celebrate the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Dr. King Jr. did not force change of this country all by himself, but it will forever be his speech that is looked at as the straw that broke the camels back in terms of pushing racial equality to the forefront of American society. For those who have never actually watched the entire speech, please sit down and think about the ideals that Dr. King preached nearly 50 years ago. Enjoy watching a man who was a very good public speaker with an ability to read and react to a crowd that you do not see much of today.
Today Martin Luther King is respected icon whose own achievements may actually been overshadowed by his famous speech. We celebrate his birthday today and despite the immensity of his speech, the most impressive achievement of Dr. King Jr. was instituting change across America. Maybe one person can make a difference.
