America will be decked out in red, white and blue on Thursday as millions across the nation celebrate the Fourth of July.

~Ode to Beautiful USA~
O Beautiful
Your scars may run deep
Yet these eyes behold your true beauty
winter games up north
road trips to Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont
fell in love with skiing and sightseeing
head-over-heels for snowboarding
O Beautiful
You may have a dark history
Yet your glorious future hides no mystery
landing in New York City
those lights
SO bright
took away my breath that night
O Beautiful
You may have a bad rep
Yet your pros far outweigh your negs
from the highest mountains to the lowest valleys
from Hawaii sunrises to California sunsets
from Alaska to Texas and every State in-between
every one unique and each its own personality
O Beautiful USA
Despite it all no matter what you hear
All love and cheers for The Home of The Free
*HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!*

[@motivationsStop]

The United States of America gained its independence from the United Kingdom, but it is still colonized by Israel, so independence is not complete until the United States gains its independence from Israel
