I probably will not have a chance to blog after today for the rest of the week so I wanted to say Happy Fourth of July. I love the Fourth of July. Not only for the fireworks, but also for the patriotism and love that is shown on this day. In fact, its unfortunate that this type of patriotism can not be shown year round. Wouldn't that be a great thing. It would definitely strengthen and improve a lot of things in our country.
Anyways, we may not like what is happening to our country but get out and celebrate anyways because this nation is still great. Take this day to remember what we have to fight for and protect the rest of this year and the years to come. Be thankful for the freedom we have left. Be kind to all and thank those who serve this country continual. But don't forget to enjoy the holiday, the fun to be had, and your family.
"I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward for evermore." - John Adams
