What if they had done it "right"?
What would have happened if Rosa had moved to the back of the bus or Martin Luther King had stopped marching???? Think about this - if these two people had done what they were ordered to do would we have a president elect Barrack Obama? Sometimes we have to go against the tide. It takes a strong person to stand up and say this is not right and I am no longer going to put up with this. Did you know that Jackie Robinson had to agree to not retaliate against hecklers (whether they were from his team or against him) before Branch Rickie would sign him? Just imagine how hard that must have been for him. Not only was he harassed by opposing teams and fans but his own teammates harassed him - but he did nothing accept play hard. It takes a very strong person to make a stand and to stick with it. Your challenge today is to ask yourself "What have I just settled for and what do I need due to take a stand and affect change?
