Today is July 4 and Americans celebrate their Independence Day. It is in commemoration of the signing of the Declaration of Independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain in July 14, 1776.

This is a Federal holiday, meaning all non-essential government offices are closed and customary celebration of this day took place in outdoors, where Americans go on picnic, watch fireworks display, some are visiting families and relatives. There are also some parades and concerts. This is really one big holiday for them because as we all know; they are very nationalistic and very proud of their independence.

Well, actually this is one holiday that I would like to witness in the U.S. Of course, we have our own Independence Day and we celebrate it because for the obvious reason, but Americans are more zealous when it comes to this holiday. Memorial Day is like our very own All Saint’s Day, so I am well aware how to celebrate this holiday. Thanksgiving is one holiday that I would like to observe also.

I’m a little bit guilty because I was able to write something for the Untied States Independence Day but I haven’t written any on our very own Independence Day. I’m so swamped during that day that I didn’t noticed that the day has passed. Even if that’s the case, I’m still 100% patriotic and proud of my nationality.

Sprits are high during this day. Americans are really patriotic and proud of their heritage. Ever wonder we call the Untied States as the Land of the Free?
