Just a post to wish everyone a Happy Independence Day. This is the day we celebrate America's independence from the tyranny of England and from the aristocracy.
America was the birthplace of modern democracy, and the inspiration for so much. While America's founding fathers used so many examples, including the Magna Carta and Rome's republic, it was their spirit and strength in the face of those who would smother the spark of freedom that made it so special.
So, while we remember that great act and the strength it took to perform it, let's be safe and enjoy the barbecues, fireworks, picnics, and parties in honor of freedom.
On another note, I'll be updating my other blogs,
An Angel's Journey and
A Bavarian Angel, this weekend, so please drop by and check them out.
Thanks for the visits and the comments. Please keep them coming! God bless!
Ciao!
