I live in a country where I walk without fear, with confidence, and a feeling of security. I realize that freedom isn’t free and for that, I am thankful. Having friends from other countries, especially countries in which there is war makes me appreciate that safety that I feel here.
To the men and women have given their lives, risked their lives, lived past injuries, and sacrificed time with their families and loved ones to fight for our country, THANK YOU. There is no other country that I would rather live in. I am SO proud to be an American and on a day like today….where I can wake up and feel all those things described above, I thank God for all the blessings he has bestowed on our country.
When we signed the declaration of Independence that day in 1776, it took courage, and strength….characteristics I am proud to see represented still in our country. So, today, I am thankful. And proud to be an American, living in the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Happy 4th of July!!!! Be safe and be sure to take some time to enjoy today!
Live Simply, Love Freely,
Catherine
