MLK had a LOT of wisdom

January 15, 2023 by Jo Leave a Comment

Today as I reflect on the life of Martin Luther King, Jr. I realize he was so much more than ( I am paraphrasing) ” judge not by the color of my skin.”

While there are so many worldly MLK quotes, this really hit home for me today: ‘silence of our friends’. I am wondering if a friend silent is a friend. I hope I can be the friend who calls a friend just because. I hope I am the friend that acknowledges tough times. I hope I can be the friend to celebrate all the good a friend experiences even if I am not a participant.
