Celebration Day

Happy Fourth Of July

To most people it means a federal holiday

A time for cookouts and barbeques

The site and sound of fireworks

Summer is finally here

Lots of swimming

As we know but we often forget

Independence Day

Declaration of Independence of the United States on July 4, 1776

If you said any of the above

You were corect

I spend my time with family and friends

This year is suppose to be in the 90's

I often wonder where the days of the week have gone

Just think it has been 243 years since that amazing day

That is such a long time

I know some people participate in parades to show their appreciation

Maybe just because it is fun

I myself am guilty of forgetting the real meaning

It is sad because if I don't embrace the importance of this day

What will the next generation do?

History has never been my strong point

You see how fast if we lost our freedom

How quickly my attitude would change

To everyone out there in America

Happy 4th of July

Maybe you could take a moment of silence

For those who faught for the freedoms we all enjoy so much today

For other people in the rest of the world

May you also celebrate the importance of your own peoples special day

Above all stay safe and have fun
