More Words Of Wisdom From Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr

As we celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr.'s life and legacy today, let us ponder some of his words:

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

"Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?' "
 
"Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness."

"An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity."

"He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it. "

These may have been said decades ago but they are still relevant to us today. May we learn the lessons of history. May it help us to move our world forward to a better future for our children.
