This I do.... Pledge!
There is no one telling me what I have to do, no one telling me who I can talk to, no one telling me what I can read and no one telling me I can not vacation.
I am free!!!
I stand astonished at the beauty my eyes have seen, the struggles I have been allowed to journey and the stamina to remain strong. And while I have been given this ability, I will share it with you on a day to day basis as I remain dazzled and in the grip of His Love. Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. ◄ Proverbs 31:30 ►

I Pledge
Freedom--simply defined as the power to determine action without restraint.Do I take it for granted? Today I was free to walk out my vacationing doors to the beach, enjoy the relaxing time under the beautiful warmth of the sun, read my book and chat with my new-found friends. Even at home in Indiana I wonder, "do I take my freedom for granted"? Yes, I believe I do. Easy to do as I have never known anything but freedom. Active duty for 6 years in the U.S. Army and 6 years in U.S. Army Reserve deeply rooted in me honor, respect and duty, a sense of what freedom is truly about. Yet, I still take my freedom for granted. Today, right now " I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United Stares of Americe, and to the republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all."
