Hail To The King

Lessons From The Past

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (born on this day in 1929) spread a message of unity & equality, of peace & hope, for which he was murdered. Remember the man but carry the message with you. Use it, as he did, as your sword and shield against hatred.

Humanity will always suffer from ignorance. It is a war that we cannot win, but the ONLY way we will lose it is if we forget that ignorance and hatred can be neutralized with education, patience, forgiveness and the willingness to work side by side with those whom we consider our enemies toward a better, brighter and more whole future.

Dr. King and those rare individuals like him still have so much to teach us and everyone always has more to learn.

Be proud of who you are but always try to be a better person.

Stand up for what you believe in but be brave enough to admit when you're wrong.

Never give up... always Battle On.
