Several weeks ago, I asked our Single 101 Nation followers to share their answers to this question, "What does freedom mean to you?" and promised to post them on this weekend's blog. This morning, on July 3rd, I am still waiting for comments. It's okay if you choose not to share. That's what freedom is all about. Below, I have listed comments that I have found around the world over the past two years, published in newspapers or online forums. These are my picks for this Fourth of July of 2011:
*When I left Ireland to go to North America, I was finally free.
*To be yourself.
*I can speak about anything I wish to speak about and have no fear of retribution with anything but words.
*I could have been an entirely different person were it not for coming to the United States. Often I ponder what my life would have been like without the freedoms that I have now. My family and I emigrated from Chile with small means and one simple goal, opportunity.
*Becoming a U.S. citizen was the best decision of my life. Freedom, to me, is the right to have the opportunities to progress and do it without being oppressed.
*To me, freedom means that you can live your own life. You make your own decisions and choices and no one can control your life for you. No one makes your decisions for you. But it also means that you have to live with the consequences of the choices that you make, whether they be good or bad.
*I served my country during the Vietnam War in the U.S. Navy. I think freedom means being honest. If we do that, we can be free.
*To me, freedom creates a future for me and my family to believe what we want to believe, to seek after the things we desire, to work hard for our own success, and to learn and grow without limitations.
*Freedom is not free. You are either paying for freedom with support, sacrifice and service or you are free because someone else has paid the price for you.
*Freedom is the opportunity to own your own destiny.
*Freedom is a place in your heart.

Father's Day and Chick Magnets
If it works with your budget, why not buy Dad a new Fiat for Father's Day. It's cute, saves on gas and has plenty of room in the back for his golf clubs.
You may find it hard to believe, but Fiat has not been available in the U.S. market for 27 years. Very soon, you'll see the new 500c on the road. It's sexy Italian curves will make you take a second look, but I don't agree with some who say it's a chick magnet. It's fuel efficiency is very attractive, but chicks still look twice at sports cars.
For you guys who like Reason #48- You Can be A Total Chick Magnet, check out the new Chevy Camaro, the BMW 128i and the Nissan 350Z
Although Ferrari's and Porches are at the top of the list, the Jeep Wrangler will still turn heads and only costs around $18k.
Better yet, for Dad, don't give him something with a ribbon around it, give him something he'll always treasure- time with you. Take him to a movie in an actual theatre, have a picnic in the park or at the beach.
Happy Father's Day!

Turn It Up!
Thank you for visiting my YouTube vignettes! William is back to playing polo and Kate will now wait for the pregnancy test to show the positive sign.
But, now that the royal honeymoon is over, let's get back to the real world. Real is not really a good word. So, I'll simply call it the world as we know it.
If your world is allowing you the freedom to come and go as you please or have the bed and bath all to yourself, celebrate and soar like an eagle. Relish in the fact that you are the master of the remote and the thermostat. You can leave the windows open to the fresh summer night breezes or pile on the covers with the AC on overnight.
Now that you have made the choice to stay single or enjoy being single indefinitely while focusing on your priorities, what are you doing today to get to the next level? Whether it's a personal goal, furthering your education, taking that vacation you've always dreamed of or pursuing an offer of a lifetime, how are you turning up your energy level?
Each month, I enjoy being on the air with John Holt, radio host of Networking Singles. John maintains a blog on his website for his business, The Tri-State Dating Service. As we're approaching the summer season, John's blogs are all about focus, energy, turning up the heat and remaining positive, even when the chicken little media is in our faces, as John puts it.
Whether the economy tanks or not, it's still up to us as individuals to stay persistent. You can follow along with the rest of the sheep and wait quietly for hope to part the job market sea or you can choose to find new opportunities on your own. If we don't want the government to own every fragment of our lives, then, we shouldn't rely on the government to find us a job. Where did that concept come from anyway?
Granted, there are a few hundreds of thousands who are lazy, but the majority of Americans fight for independence and to maintain a life that our forefathers came to this land for. As my late father would say, step up to the plate and take responsibility. As a single person, it's even easier when you don't have to ask for permission from a spouse or partner in a relationship. Make wise decisions in your own best interest.
Do we really have time to waste over wondering what will happen to the Weiner's in Congress or former senators who may be indicted due to infidelity? Instead of camping on the sofa to find out if the bachelorette is finally going to see who is behind the phantom mask, couldn't we be making a list of goals or journaling? I'd rather be writing a new song or outlining my next book. There is no better time than right now amid the noise and chaos of this world to churn up the fire in our bellies. A dream is not going to come true on its own. Let's turn it up!

Following the royal wedding ceremony, Prince William and Princess Catherine will travel in the 1902 State Landau, originally built for the coronation of King Edward VIII. The procession will pass by some of London's most well- known landmarks, including the Queen Victoria monument, The Mall, the Horse Guards Parade, Whitehall, the Cenotaph and the Houses of Parliament, not to mention two of London's best loved royal parks, St. James Park and The Green Park.

The Union Jack Royal bunting is up and flags are flying, heralding the wedding of the century, tomorrow, April 29, 2011. Behind the scenes, the Archbishop of Canterbury is going over his notes for the service, the London Chamber Orchestra and Westminster choir is rehearsing and there's not one hotel room left within 200 kilometers of London. The Royal newlyweds plan to reside in Wales at the start, but honeymoon destination and plans are top secret.
However, there's one more destination that might actually have some legs -- sea legs that is. There's a rumor circulating that the royal couple will honeymoon on Desroches or the North Island in the Seychelles, 930 miles off the coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean. Both islands offer secluded, pristine beaches and luxury villas fit for royalty.
Check our the Single 101 Royal Minute for tomorrow with highlights of the celebration. Our best wishes to Prince William and the future Princess Catherine!

Pledging their love before the world, the Duke an Duchess of Cambridge said, "I will". It was a moment that felt as though all of us viewing or present stepped into a joyful, positive future.

Royal Minute Video Vignettes for Week of April 18, 2011
Have you found your Prince Charming? Kate Middleton is certain William is the one, but does he have any annoying habits? We'll never know unless it doesn't work out and she writes a book titled, "I Was This Close to Becoming Queen". All kidding aside, we wish them both the very best and counting down the days with the rest of the world to the wedding of the century.

Prince William has invited seven of his ex-girlfriends to the royal wedding-SEVEN- Only one of Kate's former beaus has received an official invitation. Word on the street is that Kate's ex, Rupert Finch is in a serious relationship and it is certain that the royal couple has his blessing. One ex-girlfriend of William's, Carly Massey-Birch has not been invited, which leaves the window open for that "speak now or forever hold your peace" moment. It would be interesting to learn what instructions have been given to the royal guards and Scotland Yard, in the event of a ceremonial disruption. This all begs the question, how many people do you know who have invited practically an entire stable of exes to their wedding?

Did you receive your royal wedding invitation? If so, you'll be in the company of many blue bloods, official dignitaries, Sir Paul McCartney and Sir Elton John, along with a stable of William's exes. Who's not on the guest list? There were a few who were snubbed, along with a former resident of Buckingham Palace.

Checking every storm drain, under cobble stones and behind every wall, Scotland Yard vows they will be ready with the utmost security for the Royal Wedding on April 29th. Should any protestors or anarchists attempt to spoil the party, they will be read their rights and shuttled off in the bobby paddy wagon.
A major portion of the bill for security rests on the shoulders of the British taxpayers. Should the Windsors cover all costs? What say you?

How well do we know Kate Middleton? Kate earned her university degree in art history, which was Prince William's focus until he switched to geography. Possibly, she will use her education to benefit the monarchy.
The young lass from the village of Bucklebury has now changed her view from the English countryside to the palace walls of the kingdom. Best wishes to Ms. Middleton, the future queen!

They say it's all about the dress, fashionistas are also curious about the designer. One of Kate Middleton's favorites is Daniella Issa Helayel, who designed the now famous blue dress that Kate chose to wear for the official engagement announcement.
Rumours have spread that it is Sarah Burton who has been commissioned to design the wedding gown of the century. We only have to wait 17 more days! Do you have your hat?

How did the prince say, "Will you marry me?" Or maybe he said, "Would you like to become the Queen of England someday?" Either way, Kate said, "I do!"
Can you guess how much that royal engagement ring is worth? Princess Diana's sapphire surrounded with diamonds will be something that Kate will treasure, as William wanted to give it to his bride in honor of his mother's memory.

The pressures of the monarchy not only weigh heavy when it comes to position and providing volunteerism, but proving to the world that they will be successful as a royal couple must be overwhelming. We wish them the very best!

As London prepares for the wedding of the century, we'll look back in time thirty years ago, when Diana Spencer became a princess and the whole world was watching.
