As we in America celebrate the founding of our nation, it's a good time for everyone to reflect on their national history. There is so much of the nuance of history that is being lost to these generations that have been spoon-fed a media diet of predigested materials.
The founding fathers and the courage of so many are the antithesis of the MTV quick shock mentality.
Better yet, while you are pondering and appreciating our shared history, share it with a kid or two and help them know why it is important to you. It doesn't cost anything, but it just may change everything.
