please take the rest of the day and remember what this day is truely about! Our independance and freedom from England, those that have fought and died and serve on our behalf. May we have the courage to not let that loss of life be in vain.
Happy Fourth! Time to light fireworks!
“It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more. You will think me transported with Enthusiasm but I am not. I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost Us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these States. Yet through all the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that Posterity will tryumph in that Day’s Transaction, even altho We should rue it, which I trust in God We shall not.”
John Adams in a letter to his wife, July 3, 1776.
Happy 4th everyone.
