"The time is always right to do what is right." Martin Luther King Jr Music Monday : Glory from Selma. I haven't seen the movie yet, but am thinking it's on the to do list for this coming weekend.

Singer Whitney Houston dies at 48

Such sad news. Seriously not a good year for my generations music icons. Michael and now Whitney!! Her voice and her music are part of my life's soundtrack. Listening to "How will I know" immediately takes me back to youth. It's incredibly sad to see her life spiral out of control and end at such a young age.
5.1.11 :: a day to remember
United States President Obama announces Osama bin Laden is dead. While this is a day that provides much needed closure to one very horrible day, 9/11, the fight against terrorism is not over. I am thankful for all of the military who serve and protect our freedoms and hope those still in the fight can return home to their families. My thoughts are with all of the families who lost loved ones on that fateful day and in the days since.
A historic day here in the US and I am finding it difficult to pull away from the media to go to bed. Finding out this kind of news via Twitter is surely a sign of the times, no?
