I think it's interesting that he says what not to talk about and in so doing HE talks about it. I think if he just focused on what he DID want to be said it would feel more genuine to me. He could have simply said, "don't talk about my awards" but he names the Nobel Peace Prize and that he received 300-400 other awards. Dr. King was a great writer and I think that here, his desire for rhetorical effect, undercuts the message I imagine I wanted to focus on.
The reality that he knows that he is not leaving any money for his children is really sad.
I often think about what I want to be said of me. Basically, I want it to be said that I did my best. I tried to leave the world better than I entered it.
