December 21. On this day in 1620, the Mayflower went ashore for the first time at present-day Plymouth, Massachusetts. Why it took this long for the English to find this remarkable land mass is beyond me. I guess it's like finding a dollar bill in a pair of pants that you haven't worn in a while. Yes, the dollar bill is just as valuable as it was, but how appreciative are we when we didn't know it was there and suddenly we are blessed with its presence.
We should all take time everyday and think about the presence of America in our everyday life. We are not worthy of its courtesy and generosity. Thank you America.
Long live America.
