The Fourth of July

Hello Everyone, I seriously have no idea who is reading this blog...but thanks to you diligent scavengers of the internet!

Today is the celebration of Independence Day by the United States of America. Being in Washington D.C. is an exciting opportunity as I get to see many of the products, history, and grandeur of the years of the nation. However, for every memorial their is a broken city or neighborhood. For every missed parking spot on the street there is a child who sees little hope in their own future. For every tourist booth, there is a broken school. While today is a day of celebration for the freedoms and rights that we have and enjoy, let us remember that for many it is simply another day of struggle. The light of our nation may shine bright. But in order to do so, we must all see what is and what we want it to be.

God Bless You and God Bless the United States of America
