Freedom...you just have to choose

I read this quote today and really liked it. I live in America and just recently celebrated our Independence Day. It was amazing watching others get out and share their love of their homeland. I really enjoyed watching my children enjoy the parade and fireworks. We came together as visitors to a town I grew up in. The quoted individual is a new and upcoming young lady, Candace Owens. She really speaks for all people, especially those who live in America a place where it is said to be the land of the free and home of the brave.  She said, “In a truly free society, individuals are granted responsibility for themselves. Freedom necessitates that we learn how to provide for ourselves, contributing value in whatever form, to generate personal income. We then decide how we wish to spend or save earned income; freedom is the reward for fulfilling personal responsibilities." To truly be brave we must stand up for and follow a path that makes us proud to be who we are. 

I enjoyed this quote, this is what we as teachers and adults leading young children should be teaching. It is so important to be able to think freely, this is what God wants. As a believer in God I know that we are guided to do right, but also to take our lessons and follow our own path. I wish for others to be able to follow their own path as I have done for my life. I pray that our children and their children get to follow their own path and not one that is dictated to them. If knowledge is power I hope they gain enough knowledge to move forward and make decisions based on what they know and where they want to go from there.  

Do not continue to follow a path that does not make it easy to lay down and get a good rest at night. You can make a change in your life starting today, tomorrow, or the next morrow...There is no time like now, but you have to decide when you want to follow your path to happiness and success.
