A day of service in honor of Dr. King. And gettin the word out on an important PBS documentary: http://www.prince.org/msg...&tid=33060 "That...magic, the start of something revolutionary-the Minneapolis Sound, we should cherish it and not punish prince for not being able to replicate it."-Dreamshaman32 | |

So, it's to rejoice his memory?
I'll second that then. ALthough saying HAPPY makes it a bit Xmassy, doesn't it? Or is that just me? | |

Happy is more for birthdays, anniversaries and actually most other major holidays (New Year's, 4th of July, Easter, Halloween). So it seemed like the appropriate adjective. | |

Martin Luther King Jr.,day sends a very important message. It might have different meanings to different people but if you support equality for every human being, you should stop and give thanks to this man. Black, female, jewish, gay, etc. If you stand for HUMAN rights and EQUAL rights for all, then you are on the right track. To me its not about a holiday, or a day off, or a day of work, or black history, its about a man who started a movement about equality, step up and support equal rights for everyone, make his dream a reality. ---------------------------------

Or is that just me? yeah... i don't think mlk day would work with well with a lot of the christmas sayings and songs... if you were to say that you were dreaming of a white martin luther king day it might not sound right...

Reflecting on how fortunate we are to have become friends with each other here at the org.
The diversity we share can be found at very few places... ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown | |

I'm at work today
But I sure do have a lot of respect for Dr. King...there haven't been many leaders like him! Fear is the mind-killer. | |

I'm working today. And when I called someone for business reasons the person answered all flustered and confused. Thinking I may have called her home number, I apologized and she says "I'm not working today, I'm in the middle of celebrating the holiday".
Ok, I get the fact that today is a holiday, but how does one "celebrate" MLK day? | |

Remember him, Martin Luther King
When we stuggle and have war in our heads That we too, can hold the message Of equality. There really is a way To transcend the pain And live out a day Of our own uniqueness A similarity dream parrallel. So the dream is no longer that And life takes on new meaning And love grows and throbs In each breath that melts in, out And our greatness is matched in The same equality he preached. | |
