I saw this one today and I couldn't help but to share it:

It's so fitting that we celebrate his life in the month of January. It's a reminder of what we have, and what we can have, if we can just see beyond the distractions that pull us away from what we have an unbelievable capacity to do: LOVE EACH OTHER.
Building an 'I AM' statement for 2018 should be a living, breathing document, that gets check marks and addendums throughout the entire year. One of the first things I added to that list for my 2018 was to just... love more. To love others, the way I in turn hope to be loved. To love my tribe the best and most intentional way I can. To love those who are hard for me to like, let alone love. To love myself, even when I fail miserably at meeting my own expectations.
And to relentlessly love & pursue the company of new people who embody the values and passions I want for my own life. To find those who push me to be a better version of me, so that when I love others, it's because I know what I am and how to love myself.
That's what he did. And that's why I'm celebrating him today. This year especially, since it happens to fall exactly on his birthday: Happy birthday, Rev. Dr. King. You have inspired generations and beyond.

I'm in love with that piece. If you'd like to read more about the artist behind it (Watson Mere), CLICK HERE. I don't care who you voted for, or what your political beliefs are, there is no way you can deny that we've had to defend the current leadership in ways we shouldn't have to, and for me, this speaks VOLUMES to that. I'll leave it at that.
Happy MLK Day, loves. Have a great week!
