"Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it." -- Tom Paine
In times where it seems our freedoms seem to be eroding quickly, these words from
Thomas Paine spoke to me this morning as I looked for a quote for this post.
After you enjoy your cookouts and fireworks, I encourage you to take a look
at a most timeless document, our United States Constitution. Our founders
created a masterpiece that spelled out their intentions for our great nation. we must
never forget what it means to be an American - great liberty! great freedom!
We must not compromise this!
Great post and what a beautiful home that is! Let freedom ring! :0) Blessings, Katy

I did take time to read both the Constitution and Dec. of Ind. Our founders were AMAZING. I do what I can to keep our freedoms alive (I think my Cong. Rep has me on email block because I contact him almost weekly:)
