Everyone knows Francis Scott Key’s immortal words which end the “Star Spangled Banner,” the US National Anthem – “O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?” It’s such a fantastic to sing this time of year at Independence Day and all year round. Sure, our country is struggling in many ways – with terrorism, racism, homophobia, and more – but we’re also prospering, too.
Just check out this Christian Science Monitor article, entitled “The underreported good news,” which showcases some of the major progressive steps that have occurred throughout the world and in the US this year.
It’s so helpful to remember all the good that’s going on, though all the attention-grabbing headlines blare the opposite. Sure, they make people click and sell newspapers, too, but the trend is definitely towards progress in the US and around the world.
Celebrating the 4th of July to the fullest
Remember that this Independence Day! Enjoy your cookouts, dive into that juicy watermelon, wave your flags proudly at parades, and soak up the BOOM! of each firework this 4th of July.
When 4th of July comes around, many wonder how we can continue to progress as a society and make our country even better. There are many excellent ideas, but do you know what phrase often resonates the most?
Think global, act local.
One way to do that is by improving your surroundings. Sure, it may be difficult to affect change on a global level, but you can make a difference by improving your corner of the world. You can volunteer in the local soup kitchen, donate clothes to local charities, and support your friends, family, and neighbors.
