Amazing Photograph, Amazing Day
This is an amazing photograph. Why? Well, glad you asked that question! It’s not because it’s particularly technically great…composition wise or otherwise. I took this photo in the middle of the winter of the flag in our culdesac. When I took it, I thought that I should remember I have it for my 4th of July post. Now is that amazing? No. But the fact I remembered that I took this photo and actually used it today is amazing!

The 4th of July is an amazing day. It isn’t all about fireworks and BBQ’s in the backyard. It’s a celebration of our amazing country. Sometimes I think we take for granted all the truly wonderful things we have as citizens of the United States. The freedoms we have. Women can vote…everyone can vote for who they believe in. Freedom of speech. Freedom of religion. The opportunities we have. Our country might not be perfect, but it’s a pretty great country to live in.
While I know I have readers from all over the world who live in great places too, I hope you can take a moment today and appreciate the advantages and good things about living in your countries too. So today I’m remembering to be thankful that I was born in the U. S. I’m also holding my nephew in my thoughts…off fighting in the war. May he find his way home safely soon.
