For the People:

July Fourth is the people’s holiday. I don’t just mean family and friends gathering together. First at parades and readings of the Declaration of Independence; later laughing and enjoying the company of good people in back yards or at public parks for hot dogs, hamburgers, and yes, grilled vegetables. That is good, real good, but the people’s day is so much deeper. I mean this is the day the soldiers celebrate the brave everyday Americans who rose up to the behemoth of the world to overthrow tyranny, to create a country that had yet to exist in the history of civilizations. The people couldn’t take it anymore, and they became the warriors against injustices. They created freedoms like never before seen. Freedoms that came with responsibilities to contribute to one another’s wellbeing. And somehow the spirit in the hearts of people overcame the might of large and practiced armies. We know that what was born lives today, as does the most cherished freedom of being able to continue to decry injustices. I pray that the new divide which appears further apart than ever will begin to listen again. Freedom of speech also means listening to and understanding others. This is a country of unity, that has survived small internal battles over 241 years. Is this new divide one that would demolish the visions of so many brave people so long ago. I think the hearts of the people of the USA are far bigger than the demons so loudly propagated by a few. The will of the American people will always find the light.

Three Cheetos for the People. This is your day. Love it forever.

See you all tomorrow, everybody. Enjoy
