America the Beautiful
I want to wish everyone a safe and happy Independence Day!
As you’re enjoying your weekend, keep our troops in your prayers.
Here are a few quotes about freedom I found at quotegarden:
“Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.” ~ Thomas Paine
“This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave.” ~ Elmer Davis
“Liberty is always dangerous, but it is the safest thing we have.” ~ Joseph Addison
“In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved.” ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt
“Where liberty dwells, there is my country.” ~ Benjamin Franklin
And, the last word belongs to The Muppets:

Hi Felipe,
I still work at the Lufkin Daily News, but I am no longer a reporter. My new job title is Niche Product Manager. I do write for our new women’s magazine, Charm, as well as special sections.
It is my intention to write occasionally for the LDN when the opportunity arises, but so far I have been way too busy in my new position to do so.
Thanks for reading and thanks for the kind words :)
