The Way I See It

An American woman's views on current and social topics.

Fourth of July

I am proud of my country.  I love being an American.  I still think of America as a young country in comparison to the world history of other countries throughout our planet.  So it’s easy to point out both American ingenuity and error.  Especially all its’ mistakes.  We have, without a doubt,  made our share of human error.  Yet, we survive thankfully and in a place that still recognizes independence, freedom of speech and freedom of choice.  So yes, a celebration throughout the land is warranted while we try and fix those errors to create a brighter, better future for all Americans.  

Americans everywhere will barbecue, go to a park, go to a beach, go to lakes and mountains or just relax in their own backyard on America’s birthday.  Some will watch fireworks while others will cower from them, but they will still celebrate in one way or another.  To those of you who will take a break from the everyday hustle and bustle this coming weekend, I invite you to read.  Reading helps us to escape, to learn, to imagine, to thrive.  I have a great recommendation for those who love to relax with a good story. One that is short enough not to be boring, written in such a unique voice as to be enthralling and suspenseful.  A short story filled with imaginative thoughts and yet real enough for us to say, “hey that sounds familiar.” A short story that will inspire thinking and discussion.  One that calls out for feedback.  Best of all, it’s a free gift to Americans everywhere this July 4th weekend through Amazon to download on your Kindle or on any device on the free Kindle app, which is available on Amazon and the Apple App Store.  It is a gift to the American public that can be kept, shared or gifted to others. And it is FREE to download starting this weekend!  Why not open your gift and than thank the author by giving it your honest review?  I have attached the link to this amazing gift and hope that starting July 4th you will enjoy our country’s birthday in a personal way by taking a relaxing hour for yourself and read,  The Paper Boat,  by Rocky Napoli.

As an average, American born woman I’ve decided to write and share my thoughts and beliefs in a blog. This blog will be very simple and hopefully click with the rest of the people out there, who feel as I do, but just can’t express it with words, on a variety of subjects. I’m not a researcher. I’m not a scholar. I’m not anything other than an average American who has opinions about a multitude of issues and I’m tired of holding them inside myself and bending the ears of my family and close personal friends. I’m not claiming I’ll always get it “right”. I’m not claiming any political or religious affiliations. What I am claiming is my privilege as an American to exude free speech. I will be honest, straightforward and probably extremely wordy. At times I may share my own photos or my own recipes or just my own gripes, but most times I will attempt to share how my peers feel about current issues and why my generation of friends and acquaintances can’t grasp society’s lack of common sense today. I may unintentionally offend people, I will absolutely make mistakes and errors because I am first and foremost a human being and we all know no one is perfect. I most likely will never have facts and figures and I mean NEVER. This blog will totally express how I see things and I expect there will be plenty of counter opinions and possible argumentative theories about what I will express so I will respect that and accept it as my risk for writing this blog. Just having the option in this great country of ours to create a blog, is to me a privilege I would defend to the end!
