Lady Liberty
SJ LAW QUOTE: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." ~ Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson
SJ LAW INSIGHT: What does Freedom mean to you? America's freedom was not a given. There was a convention and fiercely determined men on both sides of the issue where independence was a dream. The birthing of the Americas was an intense labor process where a"committee of five" were tasked to draft a document proclaiming the separation from England and laying the foundation for a new nation. This document once edited, re-edited and polished some more had to then be sold to the Congressional leaders representing the "states". Freedom was not a given it was an ideal, mainly to not have to pay taxes back to the Queen. Like this de-faced Lady Liberty freedom is masked one face at a time, declared one word at a time, had one breath at a time, felt one action at a time, believed one person at a time, maintained one people at a time, protected one nation at a time to reaching monumental proportions.
What would your declaration of Independence say?
What is your obvious path to happiness?
