Freedom For All

Today marks the 238th birthday of the nation of America.  Every country has it’s history, it’s story that makes it special, and thank goodness we are a world with uniqueness. For me I celebrate as an American.

I am able to write this blog, to choose where I go to church, and choose where I work because of countless soldiers who have given the ultimate sacrifice to establish freedom. While the term is overused it is very true that freedom comes at a great cost, and is anything but free. From our country’s first war of independence to our battle in Afghanistan, there have always been many who are willing to fight for our country’s independence, and today is one of too few days where we get to celebrate all that soldiers do for us.

So for today, as you celebrate the 4th, celebrate freedom, celebrate with your family, your friends, your loved ones, and remember and say thank you to those who fight so you can have freedom.

Thank you to all our armed forces.  You are not forgotten.
