" The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther The King Jr" - Pt 2


"This is our hope. This is the faith that I go back to the South with. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day."

Here is a man who truly projects one of thee most untainted definitions of Character in the last 100 years. Dr. King knew what he was up against in his race against equality amongst the black community during his time, yet his Character did not allow him to deter from traveling down such a temerarious road. His courage so impregnable, even the fear of a forthcoming death did not sway his concise judgement to continue fighting against the oppression of Coloreds.

In the final portion of the earth's architecture is the Core. The core, also made up of two parts, represents your Character. Your inner core is what you KNOW to be right or wrong, while your outer core is what you chose to do with that information. This is why it is cloaked by your the mantle or your personality, because your personality is usually a derivative of your Character. Character is what has been instilled into you since you were fresh from the womb. And that doesn't necessarily mean your mother's either. Character being morals and values and beliefs, thats not something you are born with. Its when you decide to live life a certain way regardless of prior teachings, believes, or actions. This could be good or bad. Character is what etches your DNA on the Mural of life. It is your psychological blueprint designed for others to read and build from.

I meant to comment on this awhile ago. I am amazed whenever i think of what challenged successfully on a daily basis, unwavering and staunch in his dream and goal. Still a leader for generations almost 50 years later.
