THIS WEEK ON THE SHOW

This Week - 4th of July Special

We celebrate our country because it is our country, and because we love our country. Just like we celebrate our loved ones' birthdays we celebrate our nation's birthday. We value the cost our Founders paid, and all the lives that have been sacrificed on the field of battle for the freedoms we enjoy.

WOMAN-TO-WOMAN

Do You Love America?

I mean do you LOVE America?

If so, why?

Is it because of the personal liberties you enjoy?

Is it because you live in the most free nation on the earth?

Is it because of its roots, its foundations?

Or is it because it is YOUR country?

Whether we live in America or some other country, we should love the country that is ours -- because it is ours -- because it is made up of the people who are our 'national family'.

Certainly our Founding Fathers understood this. They understood that not living with the freedom of the 'self-evident truth' that the 'certain unalienable rights' given by 'our Creator' provide, was not the best. And so they set out to provide the best form of government they could for their fellow man, for their 'national family.'

The 4th of July is the perfect time to re-recognize that each of us are called to be a part of America's destiny -- to work to make it the best nation it can be. Isn't that what we do (or should do) for the company we work for, or own; for our family; for our personal lives?

And we need to not only re-recognize our individual roles of responsibility as American citizens, but to re-commit to the stewardship of caring for (loving) our nation. Sure, just like with our families, we see the flaws, but we also see the good and the potential (or we should), and work for the best outcome.

So celebrate America this weekend with renewed dedication, and a gratitude that understands, as Erma Bombeck, one of America's most popular humorists, once said,

"You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4th, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw frisbees, the potato salad gets 'iffy,' and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten…but it is patriotism."

Happy Birthday! -- Afterall, you are America

Feedback from our Guests & Listeners

"Sharon, you are one of America's heroines. If we had a thousand like you across the country, we would be in a much better position. We cherish your friendship." -The late Rabbi Ayreh Spero, Caucus for America (Remembering his life and friendship).

"Sharon, I remember when I first heard a broadcast of your radio show, I was walking around Lake Merced trying to lower my blood pressure enough to satisfy my cardiologist, and while spinning the dial on my radio, I came across, Sharon Hughes and Changing Worldviews. Was I totally captivated by the hostess and the subject matter? Yes! I continued walking and listening, but the reception on my radio kept dropping in and out, so it soon became clear to me I was going to have to make a choice, continue walking and lose this great show, or stop this walk and sit where the reception is great and finish the show............and I have been finishing the shows ever since." -Greg from San Francisco
