After yesterday’s daily attitude email Meaghan reminded me of another part of the Irish-American story.

St. Patrick’s Day is a reminder that most of us were at one time immigrants.

Our ancestors travelled to a new place to start a new adventure.

The Irish came to America looking for a better future.

And for the most part, they found it.

It isn’t perfect, and there were some bumps along the road, but it worked out pretty good.

We have a lot to be thankful for, whether we are Irish or not.

Make it a great day.
