I AM GRATEFUL FOR............

Living in a free country that allows me to think freely, speak freely, act freely, love freely, spend freely, laugh freely and blog freely!

We sometimes forget how our inherent freedoms provided to us by our great country. If you have ever traveled to a foreign country you will be immediately aware of how our country protects us. On a trip to Guatemala last year I was surprised that there were guards with machine guns at the door of the local McDonalds and all of the banks! How would you like to face that scene every day of your life?

I am grateful and proud to be an AMERICAN!!!
