MLK

Regardless of how you think about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., he has affected your life. Some of us have a holiday tomorrow in his honor. Some of us will have to work more. Some of us will lose money or make more. Some of us will shop sales, some of us will sleep in. Some will truly honor him, most will ignore him. It doesn't matter what you do, he has already made his mark in history.



Most of us go through life doing what we feel is important and hoping others will do the same. That would be me. I'm not looking for 15 minutes of fame and fortune is not likely. I would be grateful to be able to pay the bills and retire at 70.



How do I affect the lives of others in day to day living? I, too, "Have a Dream". I dream of people taking responsibility for themselves. To teach those in my little corner of the world that respect for God means respect for all. That you do NOT have the right to life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness. You have the priviledge of living in a country that does not restrict you from personal endeavors as long as they don't break laws.



Your priviledge to life on this planet is depenent on your efforts to survive. Even our generous government programs cannot make you compliant to basic health habits. Look at your genetics and get a clue. Look at your lifestyle and make changes.



Liberty is dependent on knowledge and wisdom. The more you know, the more liberty you have. Ignorance is laziness. Laziness is dependence on someone else, which is slavery. Liberty is education, application and hard work. Get off your excuses and get busy.

Fail to plan, plan to fail. What are you doing tomorrow?

Because blogs have fallen due to fb, I don't expect this to be read by anyone. Therefore, if you read it, be advised that it is to me not you.



The pursuit of happiness is easy. Understand that happiness is an attitude that you choose. No one else is responsible for your happiness. Circumstances and other people can make you unhappy, but only you can decide to be happy in spite of everything.
