Liberty, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl.
Today’s photo hunt theme is free and what signifies free more than letting freedom ring. Today we hung out in Philadelphia and went to see the Liberty Bell. Pretty fantastic. I always sort of find myself getting emotional about history. Corny… maybe, but I do none the less. It’s amazing to me to be in the presence of such a symbol of the basic principles of freedom and all it represents. We take our freedom for granted I think sometimes and we shouldn’t. It’s nice to be reminded of what we have, and what the cost was to get it.

congratulations on site of the week. nice picture, well suited indeed,
Freedom rawkz!
You’re so very right. Sadly, we don’t realize what we have and I certainly hope, with all of my heart, that we learn to appreciate all of our freedoms before they’re taken away. Sometimes you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone.
Thanks for the reminder!!!
~~~Blessings~~~
Oh – the perfect photo for “free”!!

Oh, I missed it last week and it is so wonderful. I used the same concept of free but my photos are totally different. Yours is not only perfect for the theme but the photo is so perfectly arranged.
Congrats on being site of the week!
I have never seen the Liberty Bell in person, but would love to. I bet I’d get all emotional also.
Nice one! I love it.
Great shot for the free theme. Beautiful bell and what it symbolizes makes me emotional too.
