Independence Day.
Roughly two and a third centuries ago yesterday, a group of revolutionaries gathered to sign a document.
They
declared the British colonies in North America to be free of a
government that had committed too many sins and, in so doing, began
this country’s first war for independence.They were traitors and revolutionaries. They were heros and freedom fighters.
If they lived today, would they be angry or content?
Anyway, celebrations or no, I hope you all had a good 4th of July.
