Independence Day 2011

Happy Birthday, America!
 

I often think of our founding fathers and I am continually amazed at the wisdom and forethought they had to lay such strong framework for freedom and liberty that it could never be reversed, denied or overwritten. After 235 years America is still the envy of the world because of her promises to her citizens guaranteeing personal rights and freedom. "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". America is one of a kind, amazing in her goodness. Yes, God has indeed shed His grace on thee.

I consider myself so blessed to be an American and forever grateful to the founding fathers and those who have courageously protected our liberty for 235 years. God bless America, may we always be free!
