Traveling today to AN INDEPENDENCE DAY HOLIDAY, a place of brilliancy in hot fires as they lighten up and brighten dark nighttime skies. Seeing scattered metallic flecks of metal with hot fuses circling around the clouds as you look over the horizon between skyscrapers in a busy urban city, sizzling colored lights smoking, a hot summer day becoming hotter still as the sparks ignite a black sky to become white with light so blindingly bright!
To shade your eyes in a salute of the flag and with other your hand on your heart, to stand firm. To have mindfulness of this day that represents our freedoms, the birthday of the USA country.
Breathing in the remnants of cloudy smoke bombs, firecrackers going off cracking the air with reverberating echoes of drums and trumpets. Snakes made of ashes curling at your feet venomously puffing up and flying away in a blowing breeze.
A day of The 4th of July to celebrate, a time to be at a picnic flipping burgers at a BBQ, sitting in lawn chairs holding cold drinks, a time to say "L' Chaim!" [To life!]
A time to honor our Founding Ancestors: Founding Fathers and Mothers, a Constitution written with the ideals of freedom and equality of opportunity for all peoples who compose a melting pot made of immigrants.
An Independence Day to be celebrated as a day of freedom, not to suffer oppression.
A time of no work, a time to sit back, relax, and enjoy!
