This IS not a celebratory day, symbolizing a revolution from tyranny and oppression, it IS not a day when the Flag of Stars and Stripes reflects the union of many to care for the few; and it IS no longer a day in which we reflect and pretend that the history of what we have become was filled with perfect pretense and pure intention. Into what kind of nation have we morphed, or better yet, have we finally realized with even the best motives and rational we have yet to become united.
The Fourth of July, 2020, a tyrant runs around ignoring human rights, defies the science and medicine to save lives. A wannabe dictator lies and lays in the same bed as sworn enemies of the state. Minions of creatures once, only finding a home under rocks are now emerging and corrupting any ideals or ideas of independence and freedom.
I love my country, but this birthday, I am not eager to celebrate its past, but wish for a future brighter, bigger and better!
