4th of July 2011

At 235 years old, our nation the United States of America has seen its peaks and valleys, victories and its defeats.  These recent years though have been the most challenging, causing the very foundation of who we are as a nation be shaken and questioned.  Is America turning Socialist, Marxist or away from its guiding constitution?

When you write a business plan, you write it so that you put to paper a vision of what you want your business to look like in the future.  If you later add partners, you don’t want someone else to come in and change the business into something it was never intended to be.

The US Declaration of Independence was signed or drafted or adopted on July 4th 1776.  It is a major part of the business plan written for our country to stand the test of time so that its citizens can continually and confidently refer to it.  The most famous line of all is of course this one,

“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.”

For this to be true, you have to believe that mankind was Created by a Creator.  If you don’t believe this, than then the Declaration of Independence becomes just great poetry!  This is one of the reasons we have a great country and will remain Great!  Now what we have once believed and held true is increasingly being challenged by old philosophies that never worked anywhere else in the world.

These unalienable Rights are still true but old philosophies that attempt to challenge these God given rights should be challenged!  This year more than any other year, Celebrate & have a new appreciation for our country and its independence.  It is a Great Country and we can celebrate Life, Liberty & the pursuit of Happiness in the USA!  Happy Independence Day!
