These are wise words spoken by the truly visionary leader we honor today, Dr. Martin Luther King, in his famous "I have a Dream Speech" at the Lincoln Memorial on August 28, 1963. But we should take care to make a clear distinction between the new norm for 'character' in our nation, which has rather perilously warped into a blind acquiessance to the left's ideological norms. This notion of character runs completely counter to the very concept of universal character which transcends manmade malleable notions of right and wrong, just and unjust, applying equally to ALL regardless of the skin into which someone was born, the form of religion they choose to worship with or the politics they may subscribe to. The latter are divisions created by the limited perceptions of men. I believe Dr. King in his speech was referring to this universal character that unites all mankind, in service of a higher purpose than the mere whims of a manmade order created by fallible --and often ambitious-- men.
May the underlying message of truth and unity inspired by the words of the great Dr. King work to permeate every fiber of our nation's being during these tumultuous times, that we as a nation may somehow find our way back to the universal character that should unite us all on this rapidly spinning Blue Planet!
In order to even begin grasping the concept of universal character, one must first take ownership of their independent thought processes ... Own Your MIND!
