This weekend we get to enjoy 4th of July celebrations !! It's one of the best weekends of the summer ! With a long weekend, there's time for cookouts, parades, pool parties, baseball games and fireworks ! Hope you all have a ball ! Whether you watch the fireworks on TV , attend a community event, or have a neighborhood block party, I hope they are spectacular !! We always watch the Boston Pops from home, because we want to hang out in the pool and backyard as long as possible. I love to sing along with the crowd, even if I am in my living room.
This year I've decided to think about some "birthday gifts" I can give my country. There are many things that I can do , that take more of my time and thought, than money.
I can recycle as much as possible. I can donate items in good condition and keep them out of the landfill.
I can check the labels, and choose to buy grocery products made in America, even if they cost a little more.
I can vote, and expect our elected officials to behave with common sense and civility.
I can email any politician that I think promotes fear and hate, and tell them that the sensible center will hold them accountable.
I can work on my gratitude list, and acknowledge the good things in my life.
I can live by the "golden rule" and treat others the way I'd like to be treated.
I can display a flag at our house, and sing the national anthem when we attend a sporting event.
Have fun making your own list. If we all do a little, we can make a big difference. With all her scars and warts, America is still the greatest country on the planet. I am proud and thankful to be an American.
These are my opinions, so take what you like and leave the rest......have a good week everyone.....
