Monday

Another great day... although it is a holiday, my company was open and active... so emails flying as usual. The kids were home so I finished my day on time and Nate and I got on to our requirements. Today is celebrating Martin Luther King. This was a passionate man that dedicated his life to human rights. I really think that term is a little odd -- "human rights". I don't want to get biblical but I don't believe it was ever in God's mind that any one person was better than another, or should be given more than the next. The whole concept of value was something that us humans generated, not God. I truly admire people who are passionate about things and truly live it everyday. There are people that "sometimes" act or get involved in things, and their are others that live it everyday. I definitely have things that I am passionate about but I am not sure I live it everyday. Actually, if I am being honest to my self, I would say I don't live it everyday. Definitely something to think about more and figure out my direction. Keep moving!!!
