Remembering the Days of Old When our country was born.

What freedom is to me.

Do you like watching fireworks, pretty colors.

As I ponder what to say that would be different from what has been said before I realize our country has been free since 1776 and we have no intention of being otherwise! Every year since July 6th, 1945, my debut on this wonderful world as a free person, I realize how lucky we are to be just that!

In Peru, independence day is July 28th and every house is supposed to have a flag on the roof or in the top window. Usually the houses are checked from the outside by the government and the houses without flags have to pay a fine, which is called "multa". Schools have "desfiles" and this is about students marching in local celebrations with their uniforms. The main government has its own desfile.
Let’s see…I don’t remember more right now. I hope you find it interesting.

What I have learned about tomorrow’s holiday.

The 4th of July is disputed by some as the REAL independence day, but the story of a fledgling nation that grew to be the most powerful on earth is one of genuine courage.

What I personally am looking forward to this Independence Day, and what it means to me.

Independence Day is a happy occasion that everyone in a country celebrates with great joy. Every human being wants to be independent. The spirit of patriotism makes the Independence Day more meaningful.

It’s a book, it’s the title of a country song, and it’s the day the United States broke free from Great Britain in 1776.
