Re：Fourth of July Date Posted：02-07-2015 02:33Copy HTML I wish we had a Universal Day for all defending soldiers of the world, Maria,
there are so many unsung heroes, there are so many brave men (and women) who protect ... and then there are the ones who have a low profile and noone ever really knows the good they have done. I applaud them all, Zy x  Opposites exist by virtue of each other

Re：Fourth of July Date Posted：02-07-2015 03:26Copy HTML Thanks for reading and for giving such a fine review. I have see the ravages of wars and also movies of how thousands died. I had to share my thoughts. Yes, it is too bad we can't share the same holiday with our allies. Oh well, we do remember our brave men of WWII and all the other skirmishes that makes life for our vets (that return) a nightmare. I wish to give them honors and my prayers. They deserve it.
Thanks for the applause. Mariaxx "Life without God is like an unsharpened pencil - it has no point."

Re：Fourth of July Date Posted：03-07-2015 11:51Copy HTML I'd just about forgotten about the War of Independance, Opposites exist by virtue of each other

Re：Fourth of July Date Posted：04-07-2015 02:09Copy HTML I was horrified at the death of so many in the war of Independence...then after that, it was the Civil War...Oy! I hate war, but if freedom is to be won, sometimes it takes a war to accomplish it! Thanks Zy.

Re：Fourth of July Date Posted：04-07-2015 03:55Copy HTML * Independence Day not related to Military
Independence Day (July 4th) has absolutely nothing to do with the military or soldiers and should not in any form be confused with the other holidays mentioned in this article. It would be inappropriate to combine Independence Day celebrations with honoring soldiers or veterans, as Opposites exist by virtue of each other

Re：Fourth of July Date Posted：06-08-2015 10:20Copy HTML Ah, Zy, you are a wise one! We should see how much "Independence was won" by mostly farmers and craft men. They only wanted to be free and they accomplish much much more! Thanks for your input. Thank you! Mariaxx "Life without God is like an unsharpened pencil - it has no point."

Re：Fourth of July Date Posted：07-08-2015 07:27Copy HTML Not 'my' words, Maria, I was looking up the 4th July and Independance Day out of interest and this is just an extract
from the enclosed link of historical dates...I didn't know that much about both celebrations and is why I researched. My post before this one is 'totally' a copied extract from the Wikipedia link, it was interesting to read about, Zy x Opposites exist by virtue of each other
