A Kingly Heart.

Had a little essay contest at work about the impact that Rev. Martin Luther King Jr's "I have a Dream" speech has had on my life.... this was what I submitted :)

Looking out at a sea of people-
I see smiles.
I see tears.
I see the beauty that life holds.
A sense of community, a sense of belonging-
An ability to embrace all that these hearts hold-
Hearts with the strength to stand beside one another-

This is what King did for us.

This is the impact he's made.

No longer barriers between tribes, tongues, or nations.

Uniquely individual, yet intrinsically  connected.

He's enabled me to see and embrace this beauty-

To dream bigger, to dream louder.
