For being my future, being my past
Thanks For
All of the laughter, the sorrow, the pain
For all of the loss, all of the gain
For all the drinks, and for the chances
For those talks, and for those dances
Thanks For:
The help, thanks for the fight
For every...

Friends
It is only in your eyes that I see my image
It is only in your words that I find my voice
It is only in your struggle that I find my strength
It is only in your faith that I find something to believe
It is only in your smile that I find this happiness
It is only in your heart that I feel this love
It is only in you that I find me.
I find myself truly and completely in the presence of those...

If you have time to watch this short video about the Declaration Of Independence please do. It’s the most stirring and significant piece of literature in our nation’s history. It is such a blessing to be free and to have liberty. Do...
