With disappointments, shortcomings and imperfections all around, I was starting to mope into the 4th of July celebration. Then I remembered an antidote.
Unfortunately, if you were born in the United States, you’ll not know the following or be vaguely familiar with the items I am about to list
I was born in India and became a very successful lawyer. Still, there was this nagging thought I must come to USA. I knew I had to give up my lucrative law practice and start from scratch in a new land. Yet, nothing deterred me to move here and then bring my wife and 2 young kids.
Only those who are sitting far away would know what magic America holds.
That attraction comes from something that cannot be described, but it is very real and exists.
Great idea, Chuck, for every single day ... Thank you very very much for suggesting a way to brighten every day! Love and hugs to you and Mary from Anne
Every item on your list is right

Take it from me!!
What a great list Chuck. Thanks for reminding us. Now if we can all try to follow through.
I'm grateful for grandkids & the Iowa Writer's Collaborative! Thx Chuck (and Julie/Richard).
I would agree with most of your list, except I would substitute Basketball for baseball.
ADD basketball to baseball.
