In Strength to Love, Martin Luther King Jr calls us to be “transformed nonconformists.” In a society that has adjusted to normalize injustice, he advises, “Do not conform.”

In the first chapter of Strength to Love, Martin Luther King Jr. discussed the need to have a “tough mind and a tender heart.” By having a tough mind, he means that we should examine facts before reaching conclusions. Having a tender heart means that you are being loving and compassionate.

Happy MLK Day everyone! In honor of his legacy, I’m going to read this book that I picked up yesterday and reflect on how I can further be of service to the community

I just want to say that in our hyper-capitalistic society with exorbitant prices, used books make terrific gifts!

Life is full of days that are filled with joy, stress, happiness, and lots of other positive and negative emotions. Over the years, I've accumulated many reasons to despair, but today, I'm happy to say that my heart is filled with hope.

See the gift that the universe has brought right in front of you. You are right there, right now; enjoy the moment.

This world I envision is within reach; we just have to grab it.

At each stage of your life, you will meet different challenges and obstacles. What will make a difference is that you will bring all the wisdom and experience you earned by living your life intentionally.

No matter where they are on the scale between good and bad, all people are still good on the inside; some people just have to dig deeper than others.

You have to have a vision packed with so many worthwhile goals so that it's worth it for you to work towards it instead of falling back into the habits of the past.

As much ignorance there is in this world, there's much more room for love. There's more room for the courage to love. There will always be infinite space to fit in hope, compassion, empathy, and justice.

I know that I still have a lot to learn about being a dad, and right now, I'm still learning from my dad about this wonderful thing called fatherhood.

Journaling is a sacred pact between you and paper. It's a release of negativity and a way to logically let thoughts out. It's something I try to do often, not just for me, but also so soothe and strengthen my soul.

Politics, morality, and your personal life are not mutually exclusive; they're intertwined.

Writing is more than just words. It's more than an expression of language. It's a way that we, as humans, connect with the spirit of others.

Sit. Relax. Sip on some coffee (or tea). Breathe.

I don't need a reason to be loving. I can just love, be loving, and be surrounded by love.

When I read, I learn something new, not just about the world around me, but about myself as well.
