For this Fourth of July weekend I am thinking of all of the Freedoms that we Americans have. We are very blessed.

Today as you go about your day or this evening as you settle in, perhaps you can think about or write in your journal all of the many freedoms that you enjoy and are thankful for.

Here is my list:

1. I am happy and grateful to be free to live wherever I want to (currently, beautiful and sunny Florida)
2. I am happy and grateful to be free to worship God in the way that has spiritual meaning for me.
3. I am happy and grateful to be free to do work that pays the bills and is very fulfilling (I am a school teacher).
4. I am happy and grateful to be free to vote for who my leaders are going to be.
5. I am happy and grateful to be free to dress the way I want to dress.
6. I am happy and grateful to be free to eat what I want to.
7. I am happy and grateful to be free to read, watch, and listen to what I want
8. I am happy and grateful to be free to write about what I want to write about.
9. I am happy and grateful to be free to travel where I want to go.
10. I am happy and grateful to be free to voice my opinion.

God bless America and all of the freedoms we Americans are fortunate enough to enjoy!
