We’re celebrating our Independence Day here in the U.S., so I just wanted to take this opportunity to wish you all a happy and safe day of celebration. The United States is celebrating our 234th birthday today. I’m honored and blessed to be living in a pretty great country (although, like every society, we certainly have our flaws).

It’s a great day to sit outside (if you can stand the heat — another day of 95 F degree weather here in New England), fire up the barbecue, and share good times with family and friends.

On behalf of everyone here at Psych Central, here’s wishing your July 4th is a happy and joyous occasion (free of any family arguments or strife). Please enjoy the day!
