I was hoping for something pithy to say vis-a-vis Independence Day. Independence and the celebration thereof is a topic ripe for the diatribal picking. However nothing is coming to mind, so I'll just say Happy Fourth of July! Happy Independence Day! Thank you, God, for letting me be born in a good nation in process toward becoming something greater, just like me. And, thank you to all of the men and women who have sacrificed their lives and their peace to protect mine.
