Let Freedom Ring!!!

The forth of July has been my favorite holiday for as long as I can remember. Parades, hot air balloons, canon's, ribbons, music, snow cones, fireworks, family, Red, White & Blue.

Freedom.

I am so grateful for the freedoms that I enjoy.

I am so grateful for the sacrifices made by courageous men and women to sustain my freedoms.

Some are born free, some fight to earn their freedom, and others fight to endow other's with freedom.

I wish I could say that I was one of the BRAVE ones.

But I'm not. My freedom was mine from birth. I've done nothing to deserve it. But I do cherish it. And I do understand what it means.

For the land of the FREE
And the home of the BRAVE.

Thank you BRAVE Ones. Today we celebrate you!
