Sometimes we get caught up in the "celebration" of a day like today and forget to look at why it is there. I have been thinking today about how blessed I am to live in the country we call the USA.
I can worship God the way I want without fear of death or persecution, I can raise my family (of any size I choose) the way I would prefer, I can even do something as simple and as fun as running a store of my own.
May we not forget how we came to live in such a place and the sacrifices that have been made and are currently being made every day so that we can live safe and free.
I just want to personally thank all that serve and the families that wait for them. The sacrifices you make every day for my freedoms are greatly appreciated.
