Happy 4th of July
When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. Eighteen days... That's how long it took to write the most cherished symbol of liberty. In this one beautiful document our founding fathers expressed the convictions of the American people. 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. Please enjoy your 4th of July keeping in mind the real reason we celebrate Independence Day and what that liberty has cost us.
