The annual celebration of our independence is here. In spite of this year’s tumultuous political turmoil and the ongoing economic challenges, we remain among the freest people of the world.
“So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire. Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York. Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania! Let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado! Let freedom ring from the curvaceous peaks of California! But not only that, let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee! Let freedom ring from every hill and every molehill of Mississippi. From every mountain let freedom ring.”
~Martin Luther King Jr.
Take a moment today to give thanks for our freedom.
