This is my country! Land of my birth!
This is my country! Grandest on earth!
It is amazing to think that over half of the year has passed by, and we’ve already seen the launching of a new cruise ship, the opening of a new resort, the 20th anniversary of one Disney park, and the rebirth of another.
What difference if I hail from North or South
Or from the East or West?
With so much more to come for the rest of the year, it’s fitting, perhaps, to take a day to reflect on exactly how fortunate so many of us are, to be able to be at this place, in this time; in a country that, although it certainly has its plethora of problems, was founded on principles of freedom and equality–principles I feel sure were intended to be extended to all, regardless of wealth, or color, or location, or inclination.
Tomorrow, we can continue to fight and argue about all the socioeconomic tragedies that are as much a part of America as its victories. For today? Happy Independence Day.
This is my country! Land of my choice!
This is my country! Hear my proud voice!
I pledge thee my allegiance, America, the bold,
For this is my country! To have and to hold.

That would be so awesome to be at one of the Disney parks on the 4th of July! I’m jealous 🙂
Awsome! I have never been to Disney on the 4th
Thank you, it was great!
Beautifully stated, thanks!
