The Fourth of July

On the Fourth of July, any age can appreciate the beauty of fireworks and freedom. Youngsters do not know why their are dazzling sights on this day, but to those who do know smile and celebrate what are founding fathers have done for us. This post will be dedicated to now what is known as the "Land of the free and the home of the brave."

Going through childhood, fireworks usually scare you (I know they scared me.) Gradually though, you become aquainted with the fireworks and this is the one day where you can look forward to seeing them the most . There is always an awe that comes to you when you see fireworks. Every time they seem to differ over the years and you never lose interest. This fascination comes somewhere from inside of you, yet you don't know where.

There are many possibilities why people like fireworks:

1) People love to see explosions (action movies)
2) Seeing lights in the sky is a lot more exciting then seeing streetlights change
3) They just do
4) All of the above

Out of all the choices, I would choose number four, even though number 2 does give a good point.

For all you people out there have a good Fourth of July and enjoy the explosions! I mean.. fireworks!
