I start this off being a proud American, but also a 21st century Patriot. I see this country becoming more like Europe. (You know the ones we threw off the chains from). And believe it or not to become the most advanced country in the world. But there is the problem, (With great power comes greater responsibility). But not to the point of becoming the World Police. We have enough trouble at home. I read an article by Elizabeth Deckard (check out her Blog on Blog spot)about homelessness in the U.S. and it has become a major problem. But it is easy to just look the other way. We became a great country because of our love of country and others even people who live around you. This weekend most Americans will BBQ with family friends and neighbors, go see firework shows and so on. It does not have to be a one day thing just help one another even if it is just a short time. And that little step will show others it is not so bad, and maybe like a video on you tube it will become viral, who knows it is worth a shot. If we do nothing we will have dropped the ball and someone, who knows who will come in and fill the void. Because by then we will have lost all of our humanity. Lets keep this day about what it was meant for United Americans Celebrating our Independence. That is worth fighting for. And take time to help out at a homeless shelter or other charities, it is your responsibility as a human to at least try.
Celebrate Freedom now before it gets taken away.

I wrote this in 2012, Man has a lot changed since then. I still believe that what I said back then is relevant, but so much has change it is hard to keep control of your sanity. This day was set aside to remember what it took to get here. What all of those patriots stood a fought for. And those Fathers,Mothers and Brothers and Sisters are still defending today. FREEDOM The very idea of this country from 1776 until now has become the most free and prosperous country in the world.
We are losing those very freedoms everyday, because somewhere along the line we fell asleep at the wheel and allowed a Tyrannical Government to slide right through the door unchallenged. And to this day we just set back and piss and moan and say nothing. With attitudes like what can I do? I do not have time? Oh just give it time it will all work out. Good Grief!!!!!!!!
Fight back Educate yourself, fight unjust laws and government tyranny, because if you do not, nothing will change, it will only fade away into the night with your freedoms right behind them. By then it will be too late to take a stand. I will end with a statement I have not heard since the 1970's because of the creeping in of Tyranny.
MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA AND ALL WHO DWELL WITHIN HER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank-You Robert for reminding us about what is most important. We should continue an attitude of helpfulness in everyday life. I don't know if you remember "random acts of kindness", I believe that's what it was called. There is no reason why one can not continue something like that throughout a life-time. Be well all, do good to your fellow man and remember this great country that we live in so we can preserve what made us great in the first place.
