Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts, baseball games, family reunions, and political speeches and ceremonies, in addition to various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of the United States. Independence Day is the National Day of the United States.
Everyone isn't necessarily celebrating this day for the same reason, so I ask: What does independence (freedom) mean to you? Today is a good day to reflect upon and contemplate what your personal declaration should become. Do you need to declare your freedom from a situation.....person, place or thing? Allow today to be the beginning of a journey of your own personal Independence........Happy trails!
