As you know, this Wednesday is the 4th of July. The 231st Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence that was signed on July 4th, 1776. The second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence contains some of the most moving words ever written. It says…“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,

That they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights,

That among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness . . .”
