4th of July. Our country’s celebration of the independence in which we sought when leaving Great Britain, and become our own sovereign nation.  We wanted independence from tyranny and dictatorship.  We did not want to be led or controlled by a government.  Is that happening today?  There are more government programs and regulations today that it feels like our government is trying to take over.  The same things we fought for and formed our own government for, is being wiped away.

Our freedom has turned into a liberty to do what we want. I have written on this before and you can check out my previous blog.  We cannot allow our government to take away some of the rights many have died for.  We use the cry of freedom to take innocent life and have taken God away from our school and government institutions.  This is a blog on a whim and I will expand on it in further blogs.  So far I think I have said that in several of my most recent posts.

It’s like a fall preview.  Wet the appetite and make the mind think.  Maybe make you want to come back and see we’re it is I’m going with this.  Either way if it makes you come back to read more, than I touched a nerve or maybe the heart. Whatever the reason, for me the more readers the better.  So as you sit and celebrate your freedom, always remember that many lives were given for that freedom.  Whatever freedom you practice, though I may or may not agree with it, may we all be thankful for that said freedom.  May the red, white, and blue of Old Glory, forever wave and forever be a symbol and reminder of the freedom we have.  Happy 4th everyone.
