July 25 = National Day Of The American Cowboy

I don't think there's a boy or a man on earth, who hasn't at one time or another, dreamt of being an American Cowboy. I don't know what that dream represents. Perhaps it is the image of a strong and independent person who is a man of unshakable integrity. Like that Sheriff in the movie High Noon? It's an image of individual power coupled with human kindness. It's above all, an image of decency. Of honor. And of extreme courage in the face of adversity. No other man in any other nation on earth, contains this image. And even though it is a fantasy-image in movies, it has a powerful base in reality.
