Thoughts on Freedom

Happy Independence Day to those in America.  For those who are in other spots around the globe, I hope you're drinking from the cup of freedom:

Here are some of my thoughts on freedom:

• Freedom is never free.
• Freedom is a gift that should never be taken for granted.
• Freedom cancels out excuses.
• Freedom should create humility, not arrogance.
• Freedom should be protected and defended.
• Freedom is one part of hope.
• Freedom is not guaranteed.
