Your shoes are gorgeous but I have to tell you that I LOVE your ML King quote. When I went through his museum in Memphis, I was so blown away with the first hand exposure to all he did in his life. I couldn't stop crying when I saw the window that his assassin shot through to end his life on that balcony. Did you know that his museum is located in the motel he was staying in on that day? If you haven't seen it, you must.

Thank you for saying!


Although I have not visited the MLK museum, I did hear that the Lorraine Motel was turned into a civil rights museum; it sounds like a tour not to be missed when visiting Memphis. I would love to see it in the very near future.


The quote is one of my favorites, and it is actually from Martin Luther, the 15th century German monk and theologian scholar who questioned certain church practices, which led to the Protestant Reformation. And the late civil rights activist, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr bears the medieval German monk's name thanks to his father, Martin Luther King Sr. The elder King was inspired by the leader of the Protestant Reformation and changed both his and his young son's name after traveling with a group of Baptist ministers in the 1930s to a region of eastern Germany where the theologian scholar was born.
