"One tree can start a forest.
One hand can lift a soul;
One word can frame the goal;
One candle can wipe out darkness;
One laugh can conquer gloom;
One hope can raise your spirits;
One touch can show you care;
One life can make the difference,
Be that one today. " Anonymous
When I look at this picture of my parents on their wedding day, I see more than a beautiful couple. I see two people who chose to link their love to a purpose bigger than themselves.
Their partnership held a shared commitment to confront injustice without losing sight of each other’s humanity. That kind of joint vision is not effortless. It is chosen and re-chosen.
On this Valentine’s Day, I am grateful for the way Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Coretta Scott King loved God, loved each other, and loved humanity in a way that still challenges and inspires us to Be Love today.
