Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
– Martin Luther King, Jr.

I’ve been thinking about how my actions and words directly effect those around me and how others effect my attitude and mood, even when I don’t realize what’s happened. It’s amazing, really, how a smile or kind word can turn the day around. It seems that negative words, looks, and actions can be even more powerful.

I’d like to be remembered as someone who brought light and the love to those around me every day. Wouldn’t you?
