Happy 4th of July! Also, known as Independence Day. This weekend friends and families will get together for picnics, family reunions, parades, all the fun summer things we enjoy. I want to take the time now to remind myself and everyone to think about the word Independence. Independence is very special to me. It is a positive word. Really think about it, do you appreciate your independence? Do we really think about it on a daily basis? I don’t think I do, although I practice it on a daily basis and in my life.
It is great to live where I want, with whom I want, and do the activities and social things I enjoy. I can have my own business or I can work for someone else. I can earn any amount of money I want or I can do volunteer work and give my time and money to whatever cause interests me. I can buy anything I want from anywhere around the world. I can eat what I want anywhere at any time, and have a selection of food and drink that is endless. I can choose what time I want to sleep, play, and work. I can wear what I want and pray what and when I want. I can choose a mate, or remain single. I can disagree with figureheads, and leaders. I can protest war and I can protest for peace.
As I stated; think about your independence. It is something we tend to take for gr
anted, but we use it every day, all the time, whenever we do anything. I am taking the time now to appreciate my independence. I really do like knowing that here in America I have choices. I can do what I want, when I want. How great is that? For some, choices can be over whelming, but we have the independence to make choices. Happy Birthday America! I am hugging our country and my independence this weekend. Would you care to join me?
