As we celebrate the history of our country today, I am reminded of the rich diversity that makes our country stronger, and the people who have worked and sacrificed for the freedoms we enjoy. Let us not forget the part that each of us plays in keeping these freedoms alive and available for everyone in our country. Happy Independence Day!
“For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.”
–Nelson Mandela.
