    I feel that for the most part, many Americans take the liberties, freedoms and the opportunities that we have been given, for granted. We have been blessed with abundant natural resources, wealth and the opportunity to pursue our dreams, goals and desires; more so than any other nation on the planet.
    This became so apparent to me when I had lunch with an agent that came from Columbia SA. Her tale of why she had to flee her country, the trials and tribulations she had to endure not only to stay in America, but the financial outlay to become a naturalized citizen was remarkable.
    The reason I point this out is that far too many Americans squander their birthright. Is it any wonder that many immigrants succeed while natural born Americans fail?

And that my friends, is my 2¢’s worth for the week.

I have learned a long time ago to appreciate every gift I been given and to replicate and share it whenever possible.

Michael, I have always heard that "freedom isn't free".  Thanks for the great reminder.

Michael I love your two cents, too many people complain when others succeed, instead of trying to achieve their own success ....Endre

Freedom is never free . . . . The price of freedom  comes with a heavy price that has been paid so we can enjoy the freedom today. And we will have paid the of freedom for our children and grandchildren.

Good luck and success.

Good morning Michael.  For those who would denounce this country, stomp on our flag and otherwise undermine us, buy them a one way ticket to anywhere they want to live.  One condition, they can never, ever return..
