Happy 4th to all of you!
I am so thankful for our freedoms so I wanted to share a few interesting quotes that reflect my feelings exactly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The man who trades freedom for security does not deserve nor will he ever receive either.
~Benjamin Franklin

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.
~Abraham Lincoln

I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.
~Abraham Lincoln

I have no fear that the result of our experiment will be that men may be trusted to govern themselves without a master.
~Thomas Jefferson

If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.
~George Washington

The Constitution is the guide which I never will abandon.
~George Washington

It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible.
~George Washington

Lately I have been thinking much about the direction our country is headed. I feel that never before have our individual freedoms been more at risk. Our freedoms are being taken away little by little in the name of security and protecting the earth.
We must be very careful as to how much control we give our government! I want my children to have the same freedoms that I have enjoyed.


LET FREEDOM RING!
