Sacrificial

Some people truly don't understand who Martin Luther King Jr. was, and much less what he stood for in society. The Civil Rights Movement lasted from 1955 to 1968. If the movement had been about stopping racism it would have been a failure. Racism is still present today, and that's what people don't understand. Oh, the Civil War was about racism. No, you're wrong. It was about economics. I'm sick of uneducated people trying to convince themselves that they are all-knowing. Furthermore, the Civil Rights Movement was about EQUALITY. Yes, I know, big word huh? For those of you who don't know, African American's right to vote was actually taken from them. Incredibly unconstitutional indeed, I know. This ratified the 15th Amendment even, for those of you who need to brush up on your Amendments. Anyways back to MLK. This man sacrificed all that he had to his name because he believed in something called equality. His biggest sacrifice was, yes, his life! He rose to heights that people could not handle the pressure under. Sacrificial. Influential. Monumental. He had a dream that is now mostly present today. Racism is still here people, and quite honestly that will probably never change.

Favorite song chorus: Carry On By FUN.

If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
Carry On
May you're past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry On

Inspirational much...? I don't know about you, but to me it is. Even when you're in your darkest moment, you have to know that there will be a better time. But more importantly to keep treading through the rough times just because you know that someday life will be just a little bit better than it was today. As quoted from Paul Rudd in the movie "How Do You Know," "We are all one small adjustment from having everything we ever wanted."
