May it be a first step to realizing Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. vision or dream.
It was also be a day after the holiday celebrating the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his struggle for the race of his birth.
Many worked on that issue and some Senators and Representatives might have lost the office they held because of the way they voted.
Courage comes in many ways and it is express in many ways.
On the 20th of January, President-elect Barack H. Obama will assume a great number of problems facing this nation, we wish him the best on finding some solutions.
On to resolutions that many will make on this day, some will be broken in a few days.
But better some than NONE.
Many will be returning to the class room to resume their education.
I will close with these words;
Too many young people today do not have the same hope for the future that I did when I was growing up.
When I was a child, I was full of hope and expectation.
Today, there are far too many children in this country who feel trapped in hopeless poverty.
They have no expectations.
