jessipsaloquiturHappy Martin Luther King, Jr. day, fellow Americans! I loved waking up to dozens of Dr. King's inspiring words being quoted on my Twitter feed and on Facebook. These are some of my favorites:
☮ I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.
☮ Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
☮ Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
☮ Life's most persistent and urgent question is, "What are you doing for others?"
☮ Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
Powerful, inspiring words! What a great way to start a Monday!
So, let's continue this whole Start The Week Off Right trend with a Monday Happy List! :D
♦ Chris Colfer won a Golden Globe last night was adorable and his cast mates were delightful and he gave the most beautiful and heart-touching speech of the evening!
Most importantly, to all the amazing kids that watch our show and the kids that our show celebrates, who are constantly told 'no' by the people in their environments, by bullies at school that they can't be who they are or have what they want because of who they are. Well, screw that, kids.
*hearteyes* Forever and ever.
♦ This photo of Darren Criss and Lauren Potter, the actress who plays Becky, makes my heart go all warm and mushy!
♦ This is going to happen!!! [GLEE SPOILERS]
♦ Adam Lambert joined forces with charity: water and asked his fans to raise $29,000 for clean water projects for his birthday on January 29th. That goal was reached within five hours!!! He's now upped the goal and as of this morning over $65,000 has been raised! People doing good is definitely happy-making! :D
This was on my Twitter feed this morning:
How would you fill in the blank?
