ReadViewThink – January 20, 2020
If not aware, today is Martin Luther King Day, a national holiday, so some people are celebrating the civil rights leader and his accomplishments. He inspired positive changes in our country and attempted to do so in a peaceful manner, yet his life ended by violent assassination.
Over the years, I’ve realized there are nefarious people in this world who much prefer turmoil and death over peace and well-living. To these persons, I supply you the middle finger…and honor all who thwart you.
Below are some articles read from Friday through Sunday of this past week, so my blog post is longer than normal. Please keep my cousin in your prayers; she’s having heart surgery (double by-pass) today. Thanks!
