Value of Freedom

Happy July 4th Everyone!

Freedom allows us to release our soul to the world
To express our feelings and continue to speak the truth
To pursue our dreams and go places we choose
To give and share to make a difference when we can
Freedom provides us with choices without restrictions
Actions within reason and the open door to experience
We are born to live with freedom in a world of opportunities
Without freedom, we are trapped, constricted, controlled unfairly
We must always stand for freedom that has been given to us
For our country to be the best it can be, all in freedom with unity

Tom Cunningham Date: 7/4/2021 12:23:00 PM The freedom we have was paid for with the blood of those brave servicemen and women. We should be ever grateful for it. Hope you've had a lovely 4th July. Tom Login to Reply Heidi Sands Date: 7/4/2021 12:43:00 PM You are right Tom. We should always be grateful. (and to think our own govt. would take this away from us as we speak, with censorship). Thank you! :)
