Independence is not a license to do what you want. Instead, it means you can take care of yourself. You cannot have freedom without responsibility.
Government is for those who cannot govern themselves. It is what keeps evil people in check. The ones who are good have no use for such things.
Society works because of individuals. There are those who fought, bled and died for others to be free. It is up to us to make sure we will stay that way.
Remember the fallen and what they stood for. They lost everything so that we could gain so much. If it is not appreciated, will it have been for naught?
So many choose to die when they fought to live. Do not squander what was bought with so high a price. Or else we will be proven to be undeserving.
We have been given a life without chains. If we do what we please, may it please us to do what is best. For only those that care can ever truly be free.
Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Just look at the examples of what they want. Fairness just means everyone is equally miserable.
ReplyDeleteFreedom is a gift, one that was paid for with a high price. We must do all we can to ensure our lives are worth the sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteSo many lost their lives for us to be free. It is up to us to prove ourselves worthy. We can do that by honoring the fallen, and making this a better place.
