I have been reveling in the parade and my heart is overflowing w/pride and love of this country. I would hope that peoples all over the world, particularly in the MidEast, could see the thousands of our talented, healthy, and patriotic young people. Yes, and the diversity of our culture and people. It would show the world that we practice what we preach. I also hope that Mideastern cultures could see the freedoms we have....and that American women as well as men are living in the FREE world that they, too, can have in their own countries.
This has been a glorious day!
