Honoring MLK: Bobby Kennedy's Messege 1968 in Indianapolis....


*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
If you go to Robert F.Kennedy's Grave in Arlington, carved with care on the marble tombstone you will see the following sage words of Aeschylus :

"He who learns must suffer and even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget , falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes Wisdom to us, by the awful grace of God.

Bobby knew these words by heart, and when he was Indianapolis the night that Martin Luther King was killed in April 1968 he offered them in comfort. He offered them to The People in great empathy and compassion, he shared in their agony, he embraced their pain. In this moment of Great Sorrow he still delivered such a Messege and stood by their side.

Doesn't matter what speech we listen to, he is sadly missed ; (

I wish I were older at the time to have attempted to see him in person.

A spiritual experience, one of the few in my lifetime.

The good die young.

The people among us that harbor war and hate kill them to keep their pockets full and their minds empty.

Abraham, Martin and John, Bobby too.

Peace and Namaste

I remember seeing Bobby give that speech on TV. No one else could have calmed the crowd as he did, most of whom were hearing the news of MLK's death as he spoke. Many places in America were not so calmed, though. We had race riots in our High School, it was awful. Watts burned. There was much hatred on both sides. However, looking deeply into Bobby's & Martin's eyes now, I really feel they were at peace, that they knew they were living history. May their blood not have been sacrificed in vain. ~~ D.K.
