318.9 million people. 19,354 cities. 50 states. One flag. And the freedom to say what is on our minds, to get a job or not get a job, and to choose any religion. The power to act, speak, or think as one wants without restraint: the great thing about living in the US. We owe all our thanks to the people that risk their lives to make ours better.
Freedom is being able to wake up at anytime, being able get up and go any place desired. Freedom is being able to believe and practice in any religion, and choosing what I want to do with my free time. Freedom is making and eating what I want for breakfast, and picking what activities and sports I want to participate in. It’s my destiny to do what I control.
With 318.9 million people, 2 million offer their freedom to insure ours. The thanks we give to our veterans is not nearly enough, and the sacrifice given to improve our lives is uncanny.
