150th Anniversary of Italy and St. Patty's Day!

          March 17th 2011---Wow what a day!

This day marked the 150th year Italy has been uniformed as country. Also, this was also St. Patrick's Day! Honestly, this was a very memorable day. There were lights hanging in the town square that were red, white, and green. All the stores on "Corso Vannucci" had flags and clothing in the red, white and green. Its one of the best forms of patriotism I have ever seen in my life.

Yes, some Americans  are patriotic, but I feel we could learn some lessons from the Italians. They truly care about their people and take time to enjoy the little things in life like living, laughing, dancing, spending time with friends and family and eating slowly. They take time to enjoy life and not let it pass them by. Its more important for them to breathe in every breath slowly and not letting the little great moments of each day pass you by.
