    BOC, Happy Fourth!


    We celebrated Canada Day last week, and though I'm almost a 'senior', the fireworks still thrill me. I'm spellbound by them, like a little kid. : )

    For Americans, I understand it is a *big deal*, and I don't mean that sarcastically. National pride is not that important to people from many other cultures - we just . don't . get it. That being said ...

    Have a great Independence Day - I'm sure it has symbolic undertones of your freedom from the Cult, and your right as an American, to be proud of your heritage.

    (my emoticons aren't working, but picture the party one! haha... : )

    It always brings a little tear to my eye. I am so thankful to be a citizen of the USA. I love this country and the freedom to choose whatever I want. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    There are times I get that tear in my eye, too. I feel eternally grateful to be born Canadian - hey, I did nothing to earn it, no pride here - just gratitude. I love my 'Muricans, too.

    You're so right .. we are lucky, and I happily kiss the ground and hug the trees of My Canada. ! xx

    Talesin - love Canada too..... Many fond memories of visiting Canada because The drinking age was 18 πŸ˜€. I am so grateful for the freedoms we have that others do not - we really are so lucky.
