Independence Day

Today as we celebrate our country's Independence we need to stop and think about what that really mean. We are celebrating our freedom, our capacity to exercise choice or free will, the right to enjoy the privileges of living in the United States of America. We only need to read the 1st three paragraphs of the Declaration of Independence ratified on July 4, 1776 over 200 years ago to realize that as it says in the bible:

ECC 1:9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun
.

Today this country is free and today this country defends our right to be free and it supports and aids other countries that dream of this same goal.

So for today we celebrate, we celebrate the past, present and future.
