What I'm Thankful for...Day 5

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.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Today, I am thankful for our Founding Fathers. I am thankful for the wisdom, the fortitude, and the love that they had in creating this Nation. This mighty nation. This nation that has offered asylum to those who need it, promise to those who want it, and prosperity to those who work for it. This nation is still the "Home of the Brave and the Land of the Free" to all those who truly believe.
