I thought since it was getting ever so close to Independence Day I would let y'all know the liberties I enjoy in America.
- The ability to say anything I want, particularly on my blog. Freedom of speech is very important. If I wanted to write about what was going on in my nose, I could. (Why I would want to, I don't know.)
- Dr. Pepper. I am glad that I can pretty much pick up a can of Dr. Pepper anywhere in America. *Ahh, energy.*
- MEAT. Yes, I said it. I like to eat meat. I mean, what else are we gonna do with the cows anyway?
- Fireworks. I love it when the fire department sets off fireworks every 4th for the festivities. Can you think of a better way way to celebrate the 4th then with FIRE?
- Freedom to bear arms. *Yup, that's right folks, I got 2 arms and I'm not afraid to "bare" them...LOL. I think I got this particular joke off of my friend's blog--T. *Thanks for the joke T.*
- Running water. Yes, I love the fact that I can go to my faucet and turn on the water and it comes out clear. Not all countries can say that.
- Apple pie and ice cream. Yup, America's food. I mean who doesn't want a hot dog slathered with chili, onions, and cheese? Mmm. And then top it off with an apple turnover? YUM!
- Jobs. Yeah, I know our economy is struggling right now, but it could be a lot worse. I am grateful for the work we do have. :)
- The differences we all have. If we were all the same I think we would live in a boring world. And who wants a million Cluttered brains running around in this world? *There is only one Cluttered Brain, and that's me. :)*
- And lastly but certainly not the least, the ability to worship however we see fit, as long as it doesn't inflict on anybody...:)

I agree and second all of the above.. Now if we could just get the history books to tell the TRUTH aobut our founding father's faith instead of what they want us to think how awesome would that be..
ReplyDeleteThese are great! I agree with pretty much all of them! Great post!!
