(A)

Margie Bland remembers the phone call from Iraq sometime before Christmas. Her son, Army specialist Joseph Darby , a military police officer in the reserves(not full – time soldiers), was on the phone and she could tell something was wrong.

Darby , 24 , would later come out as the soldier who first alerted the world to the abuse of Iraqi prisoners by US guards at Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad on January 13. “I could tell in his voice he was not sleeping.” Blank , 45, recalls. “He said ‘I don’t fell good.’” Darby was feeling bad about something he thought was very wrong. “It was really hard on him”, his mother said. “He didn’t want to go against his troops, but he said he could not stand the cruelty he had discovered . He said he kept thinking , ‘What if that was my mum, my brother or my brother or my wife?’” Darby slipped an anonymous note under a military investigator’s door in January, about the mistreatment of prisoners. He later turned in a CD-ROM with 1,000 photos documenting the cruelty, according to a recently disclosed internal Army report. “I told him, ‘Your picture is in the paper, ’” Blank said. “I said, ‘Honey , you did a good thing and good always triumphs over evil ’ And he said, ‘You’re right, mum.’”

Negative self talk and negative energy can affect you in many ways and cause you additional stress．Because of this，developing more positive self talk is an important way to reduce stress in your life．You can help yourself maintain a positive frame of mind 一which will help with positive self talk一by surrounding yourself with positive energy in your life．You can get that by adding some elements to your life．

Listening to music that not only has a soothing melody，but an uplifting message，can be great for developing positive self talk．Have you ever had a song “stuck in your head” for a few hours or days，the lyrics repeating themselves in your mind?’’ If those lyrics were positive and inspirational，that would be a good thing.

Books on strength, personal power, enlightenment, or self help can be good resources to help you change your outlook and the things you say to yourself. Rather than bringing habitual self-defeating thoughts，you can find yourself thinking of new can-do concepts when times get tough．

One of the most important ways you can get and keep positive energy in your life is with the company you keep．Do your friends uplift you，or bring you down? Are they critical，or complementary? Ideal friendships provide support when you’re down, fun when you’re up，wisdom when you’re lost，and positive regard. Good friends can inspire you to reach greater heights，and see your strengths even when you don’t always. Pay attention to how your friends make you feel，and if they’re less than supportive，start putting your energy and time toward people who are better suited to be your friend.

     Besides his famous speech “I Have a Dream”, Martin Luther King is still well known for his work of nonviolent movements for black people. In 1955, Martin Luther King won national recognition for his non-violent methods used in a bus boycott in Alabama. Under his guidance, this peaceful boycott changed the law which required black people to ride in the backs of buses. After his success, Dr. King used the same way in efforts to change other discriminatory laws.

Dr. King urged Blacks to use nonviolent sit-ins, marches, demonstrations, and freedom rides in their efforts to gain full freedom and equalities. Arrested for breaking discriminatory laws, Dr. King went to jails dozens of times. He became a symbol around the world for people to protest peacefully against unjust laws. In memory of his work for peaceful changes, Dr. King received the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize, but his leadership was challenged as civil rights activists became more militant. In the late 1960s, he showed further opposition to the war in Vietnam and to economic discrimination. While planning a multiracial Poor People’s March for anti-poverty legislation, he was shot and killed in Tennessee.
