Yes Tiapan, theres no doubt we all miss the America we grew up in, well...most of us do i'm sure.
In looking back, i can say 2 things for certain.
1. We are absolutely blessed to have seen America at its greatest and most free. No of course it wasn't perfect but most any of us over 40 remembers how fine it was, and just to be able to say that is to say you've lived in the finest place in the world bar none. We should feel pretty fortunate about that.
2. Its not over. You can still enjoy most freedoms just as you always have, the Rights that go along with being an American aren't gone yet.. we're in like company too..there about 100+ million folks here who feel pretty much like we do..lots of strenth in those numbers.
Was good to hear the pledge of allegience and to hear John Waynes voice. Good post. J
