Today, we honor Martin Luther King, Jr.
In 1963, Dr. King delivered his famous "I have a dream..." speech.
Here is a short excerpt below, in addition to some photos to honor Dr. King on his day.
A short passage from Dr. King's most famous speech:
Dr. King and his lovely family:
Dr. King and Robert F. Kennedy: 
A great man, a great speaker:
Dr. King seemed to be a very serious man, handling very serious issues. It was, therefore, touching and special to find this photo of him laughing.
Best,
In remembrance:
Best,
Gloria

Dear Gloria,
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful post. Happy (belated) MLK day!
I also want to tell you how much I appreciate your comment when I (should I say, my computer) was away.
I am now back :)
Gloria, this is a beautiful tribute to a great man. laurie
ReplyDeleteHi Gloria, thank you for your comment on my blog, lovely to meet you. I am looking forward to looking around your blog :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post. Hope your snow has gone away or at least melted a little. It rained here most of the day yesterday so it's pretty much just green grass for now. More snow coming tomorrow though.
ReplyDeleteHi Gloria,
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my blog and becoming a follower. I read your profile and I just wanted to tell you my father's family is from Brooklyn and my grandfather was from CT before that. I can't wait to look around your blog some more!

I was just thinking of this speech tonight. He had such a beautiful dream. God works in mysterious ways for so much of his dream has come true. I wonder how many of our dreams would come true if we listened closely to the good inside of us.
