How appropriate on the day scheduled for boundaries we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. the man who worked and ultimately gave his life while working towards breaking the boundaries, and barriers that kept people of color from being treated equally in the United States. He said in his famous speech; I Have A Dream:

I still have a dream, a dream deeply rooted in the American dream – one day this nation will rise up and live up to its creed, “We hold these truths to be self evident: that all men are created equal.” I have a dream …

—Martin Luther King Jr. (1963)

He gave that speech 57 years ago. In this climate we have right now in our Nation, I am not sure we are living up to ALL people being equal. That’s all I am going to say about that except…. Let’s do our best in 2020 to live with intention to do our very best to be aware of ourselves for its the only person we can truly control. To treat ALL people with respect, regardless of race, gender, social status, faith, or whom they love. It could change the ambience of this great Nation that we are privileged to live in. I think that friends, is very predictable. Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day!
