No independence on Independence Day

Confined in this cubic, I am struck. People all over America comes out in celebration of America's Independence Day_ it is a day to pay homage to the founding fathers of our nation. A day to reflect on the principles and aspiration of our ancestors, who sacrificed and who toiled to make this nation the beacon of light. It is a day of pride and pompous, that American people in all walks of life join together to appreciate and applaud the greatness of this land. A day that can pull us all together as an American, as a proud citizen of this free world. We Americans rejoice the birth of its country and the liberty and freedom its constitution guarantees. It is long overdue that American pass the torch of this freedom to folks all over the world, where freedom is rare and scarce in their daily routines. Freedom of expression, freedom of worship and freedom of assembly. If Americans can not speak up for those people, whose freedom were trampled upon by the dictators, then Americans too do not deserve the freedom they cherish so dearly. Freedom and independence is a universal, and it is air we breath and the water we drink. These essential elements for our physical survival can not be denied.
