Required Reading

Before the hot dogs and beer, before the ball game and swimming, before the fireworks, take some time to ponder the event that spawned the celebration:

When in the course of human events

It won't take long to reread it. It's almost therapeutic.

And then meditate for several minutes on the pledge of the last line:

"We mutually pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor."
