Dr. King,
I am so sorry your life was cut
short. Despite your short life, your
passion and determination still inspire today. I just wish I had your bravery.
I have the passion for service, but my voice lacks your volume. There are still
injustices everywhere. You once had a dream and some of it has become a
reality. I wonder if you could see today’s world , what your dreams for us
would be. I think I dream of more selfless dreamers. It seems like there are a
lot of people today who have dreams and goals for themselves but not for the
world they want to live in. What good is achieving your dreams if you are
surrounded by the suffering of others? I think one of your most important
messages is that the individual does not exist in a vacuum and we have a
responsibility to care about others. This is just as important today as it ever
was. I will continue to do my part and hope that my passion will inspire others
as yours has me. Thank you, Dr. King.

What a beautiful letter, Amber. I think Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., would be glad that his example has had such an impact on you.
