I thought on our Nation's birthday that it be fitting to think about what people may have thought back around 230 yrs ago...
They had a dream - freedom. But, that doesn't mean they didn't have other dreams at the same time.
People still went about their lives didn't they? If baseball were around back then, children would still be playing, men would seek out that precious diversion - even if for only a second. Even if only in their dreams.
So, here were are today. We are certainly free. Free to take chances, free to dream, free to express ourselves, to love...
Over the years, the one constant in our history is that we all have our goals, our dreams, our aspirations...
Most of us collect sets of some kind. We talk about them, we put them on the registry, we hold our coveted cargo in our hands, we display our conquests over ebay and we dream of the day we complete our sets.
The journey of a 1000 miles starts with one small step and a dream. We realize that it's the "travel" that we hold close to our hearts, and not the destination.
I envision that all our dreams are fulfilled, later - when we're gone, so let's keep our dreams alive and share them here at CU while we can - free to express them.
For, that, is what freedom is all about.
Happy 4th

<< <i>To me freedom is all about living in the woods without any neighbors or public roads to see. When I'm outside at home it gives me the feeling that I'm all alone on this planet.......ahhh the peace and quiet.
