greatness and defeat go hand in hand..

[flaminbats]

Everyone of us has someone we can't stand to see hurt, someone who loved us when we were spiteful or wrong,..someone who we have worshiped and wanted to be like since childhood. Our parents, our grandparents, and others who gave us reason to be proud as we grew up. To us many of these people could never die, they could only be right, and they would never leave us to fight our own battles. But then the day came when they could no longer care for themselves, and as the health of these people declined so did their happiness. Our last memories with these people often hurt, and we always question how we treated them during this time.

We must never forget that they loved us, and they must have gone through the same thing when people they loved died. We are not Gods and neither are those we worshiped, but love originates from those who helped us when times are bad. Those who go through the torture of losing a loved one can only know what it means to help someone when they are angry or ashamed because of human error.

Martin Luther King was unique in politics..he showed us that even the most powerless people can help the powerful. Never forget what made a person, who you or I have loved great!
