The 4th of July means to me that it is the birth of freedom for us. That also our country should celebrate all the hardships it has gone through. The reason why we celebrate the 4th is because we gained our independence from England. The men that wrote the Declaration had a hard time. Even Thomas Jefferson had a hard time writing it and Ben Franklin was known to have encouraged him through the process. You see they struggled agreeing on everything. Yet these men persevered and wrote it. This was a serious process as Ben Franklin said "We all must hang together or we will all hang separate". They knew that their was a bulls eye on their back for the British would be after these men. They sacrificed a lot for their belief that America should be independent. And still today many sacrifice a lot so that we can live free. I am thankful that we are free.
Happy 4th of July,
Ryan
