We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
Happy 4th of July to ALL ~ especially to those in the United States of America ~ for whom this quote is especially pertinent since it comes from the US Declaration of Independence which was adopted back in 1776.
I loved this quote because I believe it is everyone’s right…and it is in your own power to exercise your freedom to be whomever you wish to be and to pursue what makes you happy. This is YOUR LIFE ~ and our time here on Earth is limited. Why waste YOUR TIME? Today, amidst the holiday, take a few moments to ask yourself: Are you pursuing your happiness? Are you happy with your life? Do you feel free or under constraint? If any of those answers are not what you deserve by your rights, then it’s time for a change in your life. It’s the 2nd part of the year, so there’s plenty of time to begin any adjustments you may need to make. And if your answers are that you are living your life happily within your rights, then kudos to you! Keep up the great work and go on to inspire others!
Have the courage to be whomever you are inside…let your inner beauty sparkle and grow ~ let it blossom and be seen by others ~ let your light shine and inspire!
Do what makes you happy, be good to others and enjoy your life. It is your right.
Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness….
Happy 4th Y’All!

America was made great through its founding values and exercised its greatness more in its generosity than in conquest or imposition.
But now America faces headwinds of ruthless partisanship, imperial over
-reach, and economic implosion. Who among us—at least those who are honest and not blinded by aim-less nationalism—would not admit that our nation has lost its way?
