My lady liberty for a 233 year woman , you are still the most desirable ! I find myself more and more enamoured with your virtues, your morals, and traditions. I have lived under the umbrella of your freedoms now for 35 years. Thank you for everyone of them. I In my short time have seen you defeat communism, feed the world , and make huge gains in technology and science. I am proud to say the least.

Unfortunately I have seen how you have been treated by those who do not love you. Those who seek not to improve , but to destroy your foundations . The actions of these people are as tragic as they are cowardly. You have never taken kindly to cowards or traitors. Yet it seems you have become infected with a type of cancer from these very people.

We are making efforts everyday to restore you to the pinnacle of your glory. Measures have been taken this day as untold numbers of your citizens stand in peaceful protest against those who have eroded the cornerstone of Liberty. These brave new and intelligent group of twenty-first century patriots are as wise and cunning as those who fought to create you. The vigor in which they pursue their various endeavours is staggering. It brings to mind the colorful and creative measures taken by some of your old friends. Mr. Hancock, Mr. Adams,Mr Jefferson, and the lovable Mr. Franklin.

The have changes yet the vision and hunger for liberty has been rekindled in this new brigade of freedom lovers. I think, my Dear lady , that they have and will continue to make advances towards your preservation and restoration.

Happy Birthday May you live another 233 years!!
