Today, in the life of an American
Today I woke up to the sun peeking through a few clouds, to voices of laughter from across my fence.
I began my day with a run through the neighborhood, and a sprinkle of rain on my face.
I had a shower with hot water, a hot cup of robust coffee, and I read the newspaper.
I went to the cleaners, the local department store, and the bank.
I met with a friend for lunch and shared special time with a loved one.
I went shopping, took out the garbage and chatted with my neighbors.
I mowed my lawn, listened to the sprinkler, and bar-b-qued dinner in my backyard.
And, tonight I thank God for the men and women who have given me this freedom of peace and tranquility. I thank God for our US Marine Corps.
