The Fourth of July is a special time in the U.S. and it marks a period where men and women secured their freedoms of self rule and the inherent rights of individuals. The Constitution became the law of the land and a proclamation of our republic. While our forefathers/mothers brought forward that freedom it is the responsibility of our generation and all the generations after them to ensure we stick closely to the Constitution and our values so we can to maintain the world's longest running experiment.
Where we do well we should applaud, where we have to do work we adjust, where we are confused we should seek answers. We must all take a moment to respect the past and do our part through reflection to support our futures in whatever small way we can. Your responsibility is to be the best you can and use your talents to be a contributor in making your nation and world a little better place.
A profound sense of awe of those who came before. Happy 4th of July!
"The establishment of our new Government seemed to be the last great experiment for promoting human happiness." George Washington, January 9, 1790
*The Hypothetical Feather Party is not an actual party but more or less a thought experiment on freedom of religion, speech, and commitment to our national ideals through pro-social self-reflection. It does not exist as an actual party but a bundle of ideas. It is for learning purposes.
