Create A New Voice, America

Create a New Voice, America

It must be a common voice, not just the rare voice.

It must be one voice, trumpeting the truths of American ideals.

 

Freedom is the base tone of musical timing that guides our march into America’s future.

If not freedom, America represents nothing, since each breath committed to its undertaking as a united people, continues. It pumps through our lungs as we give breath to its precepts, ideals and dreams.

 

We are not helpless, we are not lost, we are not inconvenient, nor unworthy.

We take up issue with all things righteous in building on the structure of freedom and truth.

 

“Find the good and praise it” –Alex Haley

 

In praise of our united collaboration, we weave our destinies with the promise of beautiful freedom, not only for ourselves, but for our children and our entire progeny. As Americans, who are we more than those who take on the torch of our founders and who pass it along to our generations forward.

 

Like a ship that has survived and learned from peaceful and turbulent waters, we direct today’s journey on the longer road. In peaceful days we flourish with innovative discovery. In turbulent days we keep our sights on the prize to draw us forward.

 

Freedom. Our strength comes from within, resonating with the wish, the hope, the witness and the promise of freedom. With each actuality of freedom, we move toward an encompassing freedom that leaves no one out.  We do indeed bear witness to the enduring strength of our Consitution and offer allegiance to the promise that all men are created equal.

 

We are endowed by our Creator with inalienable rights: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness

 

Newly re-elected President Barack H. Obama spoke about how these self-evident rights must be self-executed and secured by the people on earth. All people are the Creator’s people on earth, which means all of us in America and indeed on Earth. For if not His, than whose?

 

Given that we declare to be a nation of the people, by the people and for the people, we must work together to secure the blessings of liberty. We keep it safe by not looking away, but watching it jealously as a reason to value ourselves as a people.  We take the steps in the continued forming of ourselves taking steps toward those moments when there is Liberty and Justice for All.

 

This is what Freedom Looks Like

 

We guide ourselves, under our chosen leadership, to seize the freedoms guaranteed by living them, defending them, teaching about them, and redefining the better expressions among a united people. We are dynamic and our Freedoms are dynamic.

 

We are equal in the eyes of the Almighty and by our faith in Him, we embrace His faith in us to be free. We execute our freedoms among ourselves because there is no one else who can. Or will. Or should.

 

I urge this reader to take up the standard of freedom and invest in America’s people, the strength of her leadership and the everlasting promise of freedom to all our posterity, to help us withstand the storms that time yet holds for us, and to share the life of freedom in peace. I stand with President Obama in his movements towards these ends. I stand in this voice and speak its freedoms.
