My Eyes Have Seen

The dream that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. envisioned is in jeopardy of fading if we neglect to keep his dream alive. We can all make this country a place where each individual lends a hand by caring and respecting each other. I can't help telling the story as I saw it and the effects it had on me. First, as a grandfather, I certainly want to see my grandchildren treated equally when they enter the big world for survival. I am thankful that I still fight for equality; yet, my attitude has changed. Next, I write in reference to my careers in the military and education. One motto that has always proved true was my ability to keep a positive song or songs in my heart. Finally, I touch on the many humorous yet true stories during my careers that bring laughter to my heart even now. There is so much joy as I look back at the endless struggles and successes that helped me overcome.
