America...keep the dream
It's almost the 4th of July...Independence Day for our great nation.
We are a great and powerful nation because we are a nation of dreamers with a work ethic...
At it's best, America is a nation of heroes - a group of individuals with a love and respect for his or her fellow man, in pursuit of a better life, a happier life, living without hate or ill will for others around us.
The American Dream was outlined for us all in the brilliant document written by our founding fathers...set permanently in the written word at the birth of the greatest nation - greatness not based in military might nor riches, but rather great and rich because our spirit was steeped in God-loving, God-fearing humanistic ideals that would preserve the freedom for each individual, equal under the law,to pursue one's own independent version of this Dream, provided the pursuance of such did not tread or impose on the liberties of another...
As we near the celebration of another year, let us not forget where we came from as a nation...
let us not forget that the acquisition and sustenance of our personal liberties came at a price, and remains costly. We must continue to work, and work hard, to nourish and feed and strengthen our bodies, our minds, and our communities - We the People, make up our nation...not some ambiguous "government"...We the People. We must take ownership once again, take responsibility, care for each other, inspire and enrich each other using the talents and the skills God has given each of us...We will persevere and we can sustain...together, with great effort...be strong, work hard, work smart. Build your body, and your life, with pride...and be thankful for the ability to improve.
I wanted to share this video - you gotta watch it to the end...it's only about 7 minutes long.
