Independence Day!

Celebrating the sixth anniversary of my own Independence Day, that I happen to share with the great state of Texas.  Six years ago today seemed like the lowest point of my life at the time....I was wounded, afraid and on hind sight, treated most cruelly by a few persons that I trusted and thought were friends.  But like the old saying goes, when one door closes, another opens, and the door that opened for me that day has led me on another great adventure, to new places and people and wonderful experiences, that have been as good as the last expereince was bad.  Sometimes in the middle of the storm it's difficult to see your way through to the other side, but through persistence, some luck, and the love and support of family and several old friends along the way, things are looking pretty good at this time.  So happy Independence Day to Texas, and a very happy Independence Day to me!

And PS.......The best thing about this kind of event is you really find out who your friends are, and who they are not......and that is priceless!!!!!
