Here's a link to a video...he's a kid who dresses up like the President and he talks about Martin Luther King Jr and what he did to make a difference.

Someone once said to me: "we are always changing our minds." In other words, we are always making mistakes and learning, and doing our best, but then doing better when we know better. My intention is to be a good person and kind, and if I cannot help others, then at least don't harm them. I think also, acceptance, of myself, has been wonderful for me, because I am not an outgoing person. So just because I'm not friendly, and smile at strangers (who don't smile back!), doesn't mean I don't care. In another lifetime, or Universe / dimension, I think I am an EMT, or a nurse. In this one, I am just me. I am still drawn to human services. So back to kindness and "We are always changing our minds." I am not perfect. I still bite my mom's head off sometimes. I am working on that though. I'm so NOT perfect. Learning acceptance about this too though, has helped me. I really have no idea how I've made a difference in the world. If its the world, it's my little corner of it. And I like to think I'm a good neighbor, friend, and family member, who does not wish to actually harm, and who cares, and who is playful and shy and introverted and a nice person who is imperfect but who tries. That's my rambley answer, TheWell
