Independence
Instead of marking this day for celebrating our nation’s freedom from one ruling class (England) and turning into a ruling class and death sentence for another nation (Native Americans), I’d like to share today’s Daily Groove.
THE DAILY GROOVE ~ by Scott Noelle :: A Declaration of Inter-dependence :: Parents who practice attachment parenting are often accused of neglecting their children's development of independence. Strangely, these accusations usually come from the same folks who advise us to take swift disciplinary action the moment our children exhibit signs of independence, now re-labeled "disobedience." Thankfully, we have the reassurance of the Founding Mothers and Fathers of holistic parenting whose "spoiled" kids are growing up to be remarkably independent! Today is Independence Day in America, so let's write our own Declaration of Independence from the culture of alienation: "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Children are created Lovable, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Happiness of Parental Proximity. . . ." http://dailygroove.net/independence-day Feel free to forward this message to your friends!
