I was skimming across Facebook on Independence Day and was saddened by what I saw. A lot of people bashing this country, short handing the freedoms that allows them to say such things on an open forum like FB. I am a realist. Of course we have flaws. But one day out of the year maybe we can turn away from them and be proud of the huge success our country is responsible for. Democracy, Ending both World Wars, becoming a haven for billions of immigrants over our long and vibrant history. Today I am putting my finger up to naysayers who only see the glass as half empty, and saying I am damn proud of my country and all we have endured. We aren't perfect, but at least we have made giants strides toward bettering ourselves.
