Happy Independence Day my dear American friends. We are very lucky to have this country. Let us always be grateful for it. And let us always remember that good things are created not when people decide they have claims against an institution or a society, but when they have enough love to feel duty towards it. This love is choice, and must come first

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
