Happy Monday and Happy Martin Luther King Jr. day! Dr. King's actual birthday is January 15th which is my Dear Twins birthday and I always felt such a sense of pride with them having that birthday.
This is such an important and hard fought holiday. For all of us the significance can't be forgotten. On the way to church yesterday while listening to the radio with my son we heard Reverend Al Sharpton say we have to make sure this is a Holiday and not a Hollow day and that makes sense. Kids have to know all that has happened to make this day happen in our country.
I also want to send positive thoughts to my own Pastor and many United Black clergy members as they travel with Rev Al to Haiti to help with relief. It is so wonderful how so many good people from all over the world have come together to help during this awful and devastating time.
Yes, there are those twisted few that are not true Christians (though they claim to be) or those that have dark hearts that want to twist this tragedy for their own media fame, but don't that that outweigh all those who truly care. There are so many from all walks of life, color and religions. And these people should be applauded. Thanks.
Best,
Kwana

I totally agree with you and today is an important day, I hope our youth understand. Safe travels to your Pastor to Haiti. Prayers follow them.
It's important for every upcoming generation to know who Dr. King was, and his importance today and everyday.
Wonderful words here Kwana. A special, special day for sure. We must always remember. There is a special place in Heaven for those that are able to assist in these efforts to help those in Haiti.
Well said. Warm wishes and prayers are sent to your pastor and everyone as they travel to Haiti. xo

I'm praying for your pastor and those who join him. Thanks for this wonderful post! You are wise, my friend. Very wise.
Great point, Kwana! Happy MLK day! xo
Beautiful, Kwana. My thoughts and prayers are with your pastor on his journey.
Perfectly put. The devil sure does take God's word and twists it. I'll include your pastor in my prayers for a trip.
My son always does his reports on Dr. King. At 9 years old he understands completely what Dr. King stands for.
You sure have a beautiful way with words.
