We were all born to fulfill our destiny.  Even if you don’t know exactly what that is yet, I believe that every man and woman can make a difference — no matter how big or small.  Without question, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. fulfilled his life’s purpose.  Because of Dr. King’s dream, I can live mine. 
On the 41st anniversary of Dr. King’s assassination, we not only remember his death; we celebrate his life and legacy.  Show your love with one of these hopeful fashion statetments, available at Amazon.com and CafePress.
