I know that it is late on the Fourth of July and most of you in the U.S. are out barbecuing and lighting fireworks. But remember to take a moment, to appreciate our freedoms. It's an amazing country we live in that we can criticize our government and the military. We can turn on the TV and watch people imitating and laughing at our president. We have the right to not only have our own opinion, but to voice it. Remember to appreciate America. Appreciate our troops, wherever they are. It is their sacrifice in fighting for our country that allows us to have those rights. Things may not be perfect here (after all, we're imperfect people), but we are all doing our best to make our country great.
So, here's to us. Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, Independence Day.

RC - Thank you. And thanks for coming by the blog. :-)
Karen - You're absolutely right. I spent so many years being unpatriotic and ungrateful, that I think about it often now. :-)
