There are so many freedoms we enjoy in this country. The freedom of the press, the freedom to assemble, the freedom to travel where we wish in this country without having to present papers at state or city border crossings, the freedom to study and read what we wish, the freedom to pursue a career, the freedom to raise a family of as many children as we wish, the freedom to speak our mind, the freedom to divorce, the freedom to marry, the freedom to live where we want, the freedom to have personal privacy protected unless warranted by authority and so many other freedoms. But freedom is a very fragile entity and it is certainly not free. It is the responsibility of each and every citizen to stand up for these freedoms for everyone in this country and to be fearless in doing so.
Well said. I hope you have a fun and safe Fourth of July.
ReplyDeleteVery well said... words to live by! Happy 4th of July.
ReplyDeleteHappy July 4th! Let freedom ring!
ReplyDeleteNicely said. I hope you had a great day.
ReplyDeleteI heartily agree. It seems so many new laws take away liberties in the name of safety, but it seems a necessary price in the age of terrorism.
ReplyDeleteLiberty is worth fighting for.
Hope your Holiday went well.
And many people go to great lengths to explain about our country while you have done is so well and very succinctly. We are "the land of the free and the home of the brave".
ReplyDeleteAnd it bears remembering that these are rights not entitlements. This means we don't have to be grateful for them but we do have to defend them.
ReplyDeleteYes. Well said.
ReplyDeleteyes, freedoms are a daily concerns now a days..It is what we live for, work hard to keep, and hope for of every day - that we still have them for our grandkids -- In God we trust..
ReplyDeletehugs
Happy July 4th!
