Perfect way to put it Cha~

I can't imagine what it was like for Jonathan to grow up in Ole Miss in the fifties. It was his strength of character, that allowed him to change the beliefs that had been ingrained in him. As you put it, he had a wise heart.

I did like the MLK quote from the comments page. Fitting I would say.
