Final Independence Day Post



Today is a day to celebrate and appreciate the freedoms we enjoy as American citizens.   We should never take those freedoms for granted, because they were obtained by the blood, sweat and tears of those who went before us.   Some of our ancestors never got to enjoy those freedoms.

If we are going to have peace on the planet, we can't take one another for granted.  For only with a true love and respect that emanates from our heart will we become one, mind, one body, one spirit.  We have been shown the path to take, but we continue to give place to hate.   We have to start living with a spirit of gratitude that reflects the honor our forefathers deserve.   Anything less than our best would be an affront to those that provided us with the key to a legacy of peace and hope.
