I take my freedoms for granted and complain when things aren’t easy or free. But I have a warm home to live in, cabinets full of food, books and music to enjoy.
I can walk down my street in peace, rant about my government without fear, rail against an unjust world, and sleep with my doors unlocked.
Happy Fourth of July

Well said, Tara. Now, will you please come over and teach my privileged kids that same appreciation??? 🙂
Thanks for playing Ketchup today!

Thanks. This one actually was the hardest one I’ve done so far. Maybe it’s good our kids take freedom for granted. I’d hate to have the alternative.

I am with you on all of that….except the sleeping with my doors unlocked. That is something I most certainly can not do.

There are places where I wouldn’t do that either, but for the most part, I still believe we are safe in our own homes.
