Our Stoic Bald Eagle

We Americans are fortunate to live in a nation founded on the ideals set forth by our forefathers as they crafted a plan asserting “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.”

We are so blessed to live in this land of freedom, waking up each day with the choice of what to do with our lives. I hope we will always remember this, and be grateful for such a gift. Looking back on the history of our nation it is indeed the Land of Providence. My dream is we will continue to enjoy those blessings in the days ahead.

Our founding fathers chose the bald eagle as the symbol of our nation. This Proud and Stoic creature sees from a Higher Perspective. The bald eagle represents Strength, Courage, Wisdom, Power, Resilience, Honesty, Truth, Justice, Liberty and Freedom.

On this 4th of July Celebration, I wish you all a beautiful holiday and leave you with the following:

My Country by Rabindranath Tagore

Let earth and water of my country be sweet, my God.

Let the homes and marts, the forests and fields of my country be full, my God.

Let the promises and hopes, the deeds and words of my country be true, my God.

Let the lives and the hearts of the sons and daughters of my country be one, my God.
