As I sit here reflecting on the upcoming celebration of America's Independence, of COURSE I am humbled by all those who came before us to give us the freedoms we have today. There were those, who from the beginning, thought only of others when fighting for the rights that we take for granted today. Just take a stroll down the streets of Philadelphia or Boston or Charleston sometime....and if that does not fill you with awe and an incredible amount of gratitude...then you are not alive.
Now we honor their memories and legacies and continue to fight for the rights of those who will come after us...our children and their children, by striving for freedom for ALL, not just the wealthy and privileged, but all human beings have the right to be free. Are their sacrifices involved? Yes, and there always will be. But we will continue to CHOOSE Freedom for all, no matter the cost, to honor those who made that choice for us!
This means standing up for what you believe to be right in your heart no matter how unpopular it is with your family, friends, or coworkers. After all, if a small group would not have done so in the 1600s, we probably would not be here today. They CHOSE Freedom-no matter the cost and I, for one, am very thankful they made that choice. When the Revolutionary War was being fought, again...they CHOSE Freedom over their own safety because it was the very pinnacle of what they believed in their hearts.
Now...our lives are measured by the choices we make each and every day. My business is based on offering a choice to people, a choice to simply change their electricity carrier and thereby save some money. It also offers people a creative way to make a living by offering that same choice to friends and family members. You make choices every day, whether to act or simply react. That is why I say again...you must choose what YOU believe to be right in your heart. But do so as our forefathers did with looking inside yourself, finding out what YOU believe to be right, and standing up for it.
In the immortal words of Led Zeppelin...."yes, there are two roads you can go on, but there is still time to change the one you're on." Stairway to Heaven. I choose freedom: freedom of thought and mind, and always try to think of others before myself. For me, this is TRUE FREEDOM!
