July 4th is the most important day for all American
citizens; it is Independence Day. A holiday celebrating the anniversary of the
signing of the Declaration of Independence and the anniversary of the day
United States officially becoming its own sovereign country. We celebrate the fourth
enjoying the outdoors: Barbecue with family and friends, out on the lake, go to
parades, and closing the day with a spectacular fireworks show.

“We hold these truths to be
self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable
rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
Life: Gifted to each individual by its Creator.
Liberty: The power of choice to act, speak, think, believe in
ways we grow and shape the life we were given.
Pursuit of Happiness: Finding peace within ourselves and with others.
In
other countries, they may celebrate their “freedom” with military parades and test-launch
missiles. We celebrate our independence day with passion and joy, thankful for
the Life we have, the liberty to make choices and the opportunities to find
happiness. Simple rights, denied to many people around the world. We celebrate and humbly thank our founding
fathers and all those who believed our lives, our freedom and future are worth the
price they paid for it.
We,
at Allan Block, wish you a Happy and Safe Fourth of July weekend.
