Daily Gratitude Year 14-Day 184: Today, I am grateful for 250 years.
I could write for days on my gratitude for this beautiful land. Most of my family on both sides came with nothing but hopes and dreams for land and a better life. A few came with nothing more than courage and determination.
Many were patriots and supporters of the cause of freedom. The days were long and the work was hard.
When the time came to declare independence… the risk of death for treason was real. They labored over the founding documents to ensure a strong union. Not perfect but still the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Today, I am grateful for 250 years.
