So my family was home yesterday, in honor of this man ^^^^. I took the time to explain Dr. King's message to my five year old and was beyond grateful that he found it difficult to understand how anyone could hate based on color. Or appearance. Or anything. To him, it was unthinkable.
I love that. I pray he stays that way. It reminds me of the time a few weeks ago when my husband and I were watching some reality TV show or something, and he asked us "what are those fiery things hanging out of their mouths?"
Cigarettes. Love. That. He. Didn't. Know.
(And after hearing about them, he was again baffled- kids are awesome.)
Anyway, yesterday, social media was full of MLK messages. Today, it's over for another year. But this morning, I found this little video on my fb feed. To me, this guy is spreading the message and love of Dr. King. Very sweet video. Very kind man. Very inspirational.
Share the love, folks.
