Martin Luther King's Dream

My recent visit to Ebenezer Baptist Church, the home pulpit for Dr. Martin Luther King was very sobering. The church pews, podium and even microphone are frozen in time in the warmth of a fire inside a man who stood for social justice, equal rights and dignity.  He looked upon all of us with such fierce love and determination.

It was a calling he could not ignore and was willing to die....and did die, all for the passion in his soul.
What are you willing to die for?

As a career counselor, I often blog about resume templates, job search strategies and the most effective interviewing techniques. Not today. 

Rather, I am asking myself this question:

What is one thing I would risk my very life for to be so passionate, so surrendered, so devoted to that it would be worth sacrificing my very life?  Am I willing to live for something worth dying for?

Or better yet, am I willing to live for what matters most?
