Today is Martin Luther King Day.
I woke up and was not quite sure what to say to honor this great man,
and then I opened one of my emails to this quote in “Daily OM”…
“IN ORDER TO FORGIVE WE NEED TO STOP
IDENTIFYING OURSELVES WITH
THE SUFFERING THAT WAS CAUSED TO US”.
And in the words of Martin Luther King Jr…
”As my suffering mounted, I soon realized that
there were two ways in which I could respond to my situation …
either to react with bitterness or to seek to
transform the suffering into a creative force.
I decided to follow the latter.”
Together, these two quotes seemed to say enough…
