DID YOU KNOW THAT AFTER THE SIGNING OF THE
Declaration of Independence, some 236 years ago, the room fell silent? The men lingered in the silence, the weight of what had just transpired on their shoulders. As the reality of what had just occurred took the full weight upon them, they began to weep. Some fell to their knees in praise in adoration to God who had made it all possible. They knew what they had done was enormous - what they feared was the future and could it be preserved.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes;"
