I wanted to wish all of my professional peers a happy American Independence Day, and to remind everyone how lucky we are that our forefathers had the insights to lay the groundwork for where we are today. Nothing is perfect, and trials where freedom is, will strengthen. As professionsals, we begin each fiscal year with a new set of goals. Back in 1787, our forefathers did the same, and laid these out in what became the preamble of our Constitution. Essentially, the “objectives” of our governments foundation. “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, 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.". Take it to heart. Take it to work. Take it to sleep. These are critical objectives that we must strive to drive with passion in our work and home lives. Don’t tread on these objectives. Happy Independence Day!

🎇 Happy Independence Day! As we gather to celebrate our nation’s founding, let’s reflect on a core question: What makes America truly great? 🤔💡 #July4th #IndependenceDay On this day in 1776, our founders embarked on a bold experiment in democracy by declaring all people are created equal. This principle has guided us as a nation through more than two centuries of change. It’s a reminder that our strength comes from our commitment to freedom—for everyone. 🗽📜 Consider the early patriots, who dared to imagine a free America where every voice could be heard. From the abolitionists to the suffragettes to civil rights heroes, every generation has champions who have pushed us closer to fulfilling that original promise of liberty and justice for all. Isn’t that the heart of patriotism? ❤️ This July 4th, let’s honor our nation not just by looking back, but by looking forward. Let’s commit to ensuring that freedom and justice are not just ideals, but realities for all. As we enjoy today’s celebrations, let’s also ask ourselves: How can we contribute to making America live up to its highest ideals? 🌟🚀 #4thOfJuly #AmericanPride #FreedomAndJustice

Our Nation’s History is filled with the stories of brave men and women who gave everything they had to build America into the Greatest Nation in the History of the World. Generations of American Patriots have summoned the American Spirit of Strength, Determination, and Love of Country to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges. The American People have proven time and again that we can overcome any obstacle and any force pitted against us. We offer to the American people the 2024 GOP Platform to Make America Great Again! It is a forward-looking Agenda that begins with the following twenty promises that we will accomplish very quickly when we win the White House and Republican Majorities in the House and Senate.

The word 'Independence', carries a weight heavier than felt, means deeper than heard, and really is the one of the most fundamental, and basic right that governs the behavior of an individual. The exhilarating sense of feeling, when true freedom is achieved, is impeccably liberating and empowering. Maybe it is the first salary, or first profit, buying your own vehicle, moving in to your own house, regardless of what it is, the sense of freedom in itself, releases dopamine. But in order to achieve freedom, virtues such as determination, effort, patience, bravery, and many more factors are needed. Independence, or freedom, isn't something that can be confined to wishing once in a year, it is much bigger than that. Everything and anything that leads to freedom, or help in being independent should be celebrated and cherished by everyone, however small it is. Happy Independence Day to all those 'Dreamers and Doers'.

As we celebrate Independence Day, we are reminded that, while still far from perfect, our country has always evolved to meet the needs of an ever-changing world. We have an opportunity to continue this evolution and work together to build a thriving, resilient, pro-equity democracy that effectively meets the needs of a politically, racially, and religiously diverse America.

🌟 Today, we honor Juneteenth, our country’s second Independence Day. On June 19, 1865, Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas, declaring freedom for more than 250,000 enslaved Americans. This pivotal moment serves as a powerful reminder: none are free until we are all free. ✊🏾 Juneteenth is a critical time for all of us as it serves as a reminder that equality and justice in society isn’t a destination—it’s a journey we must continue to work toward every day. Recognizing Juneteenth and its importance is just the first step in that journey. We must continue to work toward the development of a society for all, and that is a journey that will require the efforts of all of us. At Project Good Apparel, we celebrate Juneteenth by reaffirming our commitment to fight for an inclusive and just future. Take a moment to honor this day by recognizing the ongoing journey toward true freedom and doing our part to make it a reality for everyone. #Juneteenth #SecondIndependenceDay #ProjectGoodApparel #NoneAreFreeUntilAllAreFree #EqualityForAll #DoGood #FreedomJourney #InclusiveFuture

I’d also like to to thank all of the brave people who gave their lives to obtain and keep our independence for the last 248 years. Original Declaration (link below to read all of it): WHEN in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation. 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, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security. Such has been the patient Sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the Necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The History of the present King of Great-Britain is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all having in direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public Good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing Importance, unless suspended in their Operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other Laws for the Accommodation of large Districts of People, unless those People would relinquish the Right of Representation in the Legislature, a Right inestimable to them, and formidable to Tyrants only.

15th August 2024: As we celebrate our 78th Independence Day, we reflect on the hard-earned freedom our forefathers fought for. Their sacrifices paved the way for our nation's independence. Let's honor and respect them, and salute their bravery. At the same time, recent acts of cruelty and injustice remind us that we still have work to do. These challenges serve as lessons we must learn from to build a better society. But let’s not forget the brighter side—our small achievements and the unity we can be proud of. Each of us has a role to play in removing the scars of injustice and ensuring a future where justice isn’t something to fight for, but a basic right for all. As we raise our flag today, let’s recognize both our struggles and our progress. Together, let’s strive to ensure safety and dignity for everyone. Happy Independence Day! 🇮🇳 **#IndependenceDay2024 #SaluteToHeroes #FreedomAndUnity #JusticeForAll #ProgressAndPeace**
