Freedoms we enjoy

[moleman]

As we all celebrate Independence Day, let us not forget those who gave all, and those that now serve,as well as those who have served, to protect the freedoms that we all enjoy.
Thank You All!

AMEN!

Yup... there are still a lot of folks baking in the dry, dusty #@%&hole over there, wishing they had ice to put in their water... to just have a cold drink and a soft place to lay their head. The little things we take for granted mean so much when you don't have them.  Count your blessings tomorrow... and think of those that make those blessings secure.

God bless those who served and their families.  Thank you.

Remember all who gave their time, their sweat, their blood and their lives for this great nation and the cause of Liberty from the days of the Revolution to today.

And as our WWII veterans are now quite elderly, be sure to honor those who are left and remember those who are gone. The Allied forces in WWII saved the world -- quite literally.

God bless and keep them all. We owe them our lives and our precious liberty.

Truer words were never spoken!

We all need to thank all who gave their lives to our country before us.  We need to respect and honor all of the fine folks who chose to respect, defend and honor our country with their willingness to serve her.  

We also need to respect and honor those who were forced into duty via the draft.  They maybe did not chooose to go, but they served us none-the-less.

I was fortunate enough to travel (for business) to Russia and Germany.  It is always a humbling experience and I am always extremely greatful to come back home.  One really learns how truly great this country is when you travel to former communist countries.

My prayers go out to all who have, who are and who have recently chosen to serve this country!  May God bless you all and may God keep blessing the USA!

Great day for all of us to slowly read the Gettysburg address ....

Thanks to all that preserve our freedom, freedom is not free and the sacrifices are great.

We owe so much to those who have served and sacrificed to give us this country.

I am so thankful to be born in the U.S.A. I thank all that have fought for our freedom and all that have given thier all, all gave some and some gave all. We live in a very critical time and I hope we all rise together now and do what has to be done to keep the America I grew up in.

God bless the USA and the principles she was founded upon!  God bless the fighting men and their families who give so much so that we can all be free.  And may we stand for truth, righteousness, liberty, and justice for all!

We have the pleasure of enjoying such trifles as we do because we do not spend our lives clawing out an existence, like so many others in other times and places have had to do.
