“…You have an obligation to reach for justice for those who cannot do it for themselves...”
These words. These words have resonated in my soul since yesterday. These words are so wise. These words came from a friend to me when I asked for some advice.
If I change it a little, it could read, “I have an obligation to reach for justice for those who cannot do it for themselves.”
I asked do I really have the courage? Do I have the strength?
Then I realized after prayer, support from husband and advice from my “lunch ladies”, I realized I have no choice on this particular issue. I have to take the next step.
My knees might be shaking, my voice might crack and I might stumble but I will move forward.
Someone mentioned that I might have a gift for this. I laughed at first and then realized she might be right. There is a fire inside me when injustice is served. I cannot change the world, but I will certainty not stand and let life pass by without at least trying to make a difference. For now I do believe…
“…You have an obligation to reach for justice for those who cannot do it for themselves...”
