Called to Be Better

Today we remember a man whose words inspired rather than belittled.  A man whose vision looked forward in hope rather than backwards in fear.  A man who fought against horrific inequities yet saw the bright promise of our democracy.  A man who never tweeted, posted, or blogged, but whose words continue to give hope to others around the world.  A man who was violently taken from us but whose life’s work promoted peace.   Dr. King continues to call us today.  He calls us to be our better selves.  I cannot think of a more important time to heed his call. ~c.h.
