This year has been tough on us all! The 4th of July weekend is upon us, typically marked by fireworks over the ocean, up and down our coastline. That will not be the scene this year. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to threaten public health and restrict our lives and businesses. Social unrest is elevated and people seem to be more divided than ever. But still….the things that Independence Day represents remain and we are thankful for them all.
America, even with all its problems, is still the best place to live, raise a family, or follow your dream.
America is known as the land of the free. We can speak our minds and stand up (or kneel down) in a peaceful protest for change. We have the freedom of speech, religion, press, and the right to vote.
America offers diversity. Our history is rich because it is made up of immigrants from other countries, who brought along their cultures and diversity.
America offers practically endless opportunities. With hard work, there is no limit to what we can achieve. As an American, we can get an education and have the opportunity to do whatever we want to do with our life. We are free to pursue our dreams.
Bob and I have a renewed appreciation for the opportunities we are afforded in this country. We spent most of our lives working for other people. But when we decided to start our own business, we knew that such a leap would not have been possible in many other countries.
Our freedoms came at a great cost.
We owe our forefathers, military and veterans our deepest gratitude.
Wishing you and your family a happy, healthy and safe holiday.
Peace & Love,
Cindy
And I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land God bless the U.S.A.
