The 4th of July is upon us, and this year, Americans have several reasons to celebrate the Independence Day with fervour.
President Barack Obama announced that the US embassy will be reopened in Cuba; it was closed in 1961, according to CNN.
Another cause for celebration is the recent Supreme Court ruling in favour of same-sex marriage.
One more reason to cheer is that after almost 150 years of Civil War, the Confederate battle flag, regarded as a symbol of racism, will finally cease to fly over public buildings.
Thus, there are enough reasons for one to feel proud of being an American and its great star-spangled banner.
Here, we have compiled greetings, quotes and messages that you can share with your friends and family on 4 July to wish them a Happy Independence Day 2015:

Happy Independence Day Wishes and Messages
You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4th, not with a parade of guns,tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism. — Erma Bombeck
One flag, one land, one heart, one hand, One Nation evermore! Oliver Wendell Holmes
