MLK Day

MLK had a dream and our generation is getting to witness something that was part of that dream. As we all enjoy this day off from school. ( I have the inauguration off as well.) Please take time to remember all those who died for the cause and made our living conditions better than what they were in the past.

Dream Deferred

What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
Like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?

Langston Hughes

I Have a Dream Speech
