I meant to post this yesterday in honor of the great Martin Luther King Jr.
I thought about this post all day- and then I laid down on the couch and took a nap.
My napping really kind of leads to this post.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.- my goodness what a man. What a leader. What a poet. What a speaker. What a mover of people. What a feeler of feels……What an extraordinary human.
On social media, there was a call to post a favorite MLK quote. Earlier in the day, I had found this gem and made it my own…..
“If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.”
In the amazing prose of MLK, this quote is not extraordinary. It does not speak to never losing hope, finding the stars in the darkness or loving my enemy.
But it does speak to what I can do today. And what I can do tomorrow.
I can strive to do small things in a great way. And maybe those small things become great.
Or maybe not.
But its what I can do.
Doing is delightful.
Happy MLK day.
