We are celebrating the 241st anniversary of the United States this July. At times, I wonder if we remember the founding principles and values that created our country.
Divided opinion is nothing new in America. Throughout our history, our country has enjoyed diverse thinking and differing views. If we were unable to voice our ideas, then we would not be the land of the free. So even if we disagree with one another, healthy debate keeps our country strong.
Conflict is something we face consistently in life. I use this question for my personal reflection when faced with a struggle. “Am I seeing the truth of this situation, or just what I choose to believe about it?”
Enjoy your Independence Day wherever you may be celebrating! I hope you have a few moments to reflect on whatever is on your mind.
