to enjoy our freedom
never taking it for granted.

joy posted a new Poem titled FREEDOM 15 weeks ago
May we be blessed to understand…
freedom needs to be more than just another word…
we use haphazardly….
It comes with a significant value…
an expensive cost…
the price of freedom is responsibility…
without it…freedom will be lost.

There was a young woman from Muncie
Who wanted to have some fun, see

But her life did improve
