Independence day, or the 4th of July is a federal holiday celebrated in the United States. Today we celebrate the approval of the Declaration of Independence by the Second Continental Congress on July 4, 1776.
Today I think many people just see it as another day off of work and a day to have picnics and watch fireworks.
Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement. ~Nelson Mandela
Whether you live in the U.S. or somewhere else, no matter how you spend your day, I hope that you have a good one.
Happy 4th to you, too! :)
