Happy Independence Day America!
Happy Independence Day, America!!!
We were out and about shopping yesterday and I like talking to pretty much everyone. (I’m so glad masks are off so we can connect with our faces again)
Without exception, everyone I chatted with was excited to some degree about the holiday.
Some were going to BBQs with their friends.
Some had a big family gathering they were looking forward to because they don’t get to see their fam very often.
Some were just going to enjoy their day off.
Universally, we all agreed that we live in a beautiful and great country and are grateful for the fact that we could even have these discussions.
Because it’s not that way everywhere.
We are grateful for the freedoms this country affords us.
We also all agreed that our country is not perfect.
We (at least me and my 10 or so new friends) know that our participation and contribution helps to make things better.
Isn’t that what it’s about?
Do good today. Love yourself. Find a new friend.
Eat a hot dog or not.
