“I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.”

“Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend.”

~Martin Luther King Jr.

Sir Isaac Newton once said, “We build too many walls and not enough bridges.” Today in America we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a man who not only crossed bridges, but built them.

Thank you, sir!

    Yes yes yes! Thank you for sharing Mitch. Grounded inspiration in this time of so much judgement. We must love ourselves first. All compassion flows from there.

    Great post, Mitch. Dr. King had shared his desire for peace between all people. Those who do not agree with him may someday try his Dream and find an effective manner to Love.
