If you read my blog yesterday, you saw I took the day off from all internet posting. I lost my internet voice, so to speak. Today is a new day, and it's a day to be heard. This day I am grateful to live in the United States of America. A country founded by brilliant men with amazing insight and unwavering faith in their ideas for a perfect union. Yes, they argued and fought, and there were compromises - but the end result was brilliant.
All of these years later, I am blessed and lucky to be able to go to a voting booth this morning. Without fear of repercussion I can vote for the candidates of my choice. I will leave the polling place and go to church to worship as I choose. In other countries Bibles are burned and Christians hide in fear. I can post my personal and political opinions on my blog or facebook. I will not be censored or arrested.
Yes, I am very grateful to live in this one nation, under God, with liberty and justice for all ~ and for all who have fought to protect this land and our sacred freedoms.
