The 4th of July is special


If you didn’t see it the History Channel had a special review of the start of the United States of America. It had so many things that I never knew about what our founder went through to start our most wonderful country.

We all think as George Washington was the father of our country, but what shows up in this History Channel presentation is with how his wisdom there would not be the United States today.

George had to a lead an army without money. The congress wanted him to kick out the British but time after they refused to fund his army. It is truly is a miracle that we won that war. For whatever reason, some very smart and dedicated people, we are now the most dynamic and bountiful country in the world.

On the 4th of July we celebrate the birth of our great nation. Part of the celebration is fireworks and on4th of July evening Micki and I watched the Macy’s 4th fireworks on New York City.

The fireworks last longer than any fireworks I have ever seen and along with some our most patriotic music. What was different than most fireworks display is they had five or six firing location in the harbor all synced together firing off identical display. Along with that they seem to have all this great music blended with the fireworks.

When I saw this display and heard the fantastic music chills went up and down my spine. Then the audience was being paned by the TV cameras. Everyone was really into it, from the little kids to Grandma and Grandpa. What was especially heart warming was when they paned in on our military personnel. They were all beaming with pride and singing their hearts out.

If you weren’t proud to be an American after viewing the marvelous presentation then you shouldn’t be an American. That might sound harsh, but what our ancestors did so we could have the most wonderful country in the world, but that is the way I feel.
So let’s all go out let everyone know that we live in the best country in the world and we should all to do what it takes to keep it that way.
Let’s make the 4th of July every day.

Happiness with health and wealth to you
