I would like to talk about something our President never talks about, The great America.
I have a few questions for all of us to ask ourselves.
How often do we take our great country for granted? I'm guessing it is more times than not.
How did we come to be? Was it through submission or strength? How do we have the liberty we have today? Is our way of life really that bad?
Here we have a man who on a daily basis, trashes this country. Trashes the way we live. Trashes the way we think. And by doing that he trashes you, our fathers, And their fathers, and their fathers and so on..
How often do you sit back and think of what it is you have here? Regardless of you financial situation. I think sometimes we forget, Especially when we have a man telling us it was all wrong. How often do we think of what got us where we are? And who got us where we are?
The generations of Men and Women who sacrificed for the good of there family and the betterment of a community and society? I know one man who doesnt.
How often besides one specific day of the year do you think of our heroes that fought for humanity, Liberty, Freedom across the globe? I know one man who doesnt.
How often do you look around at your surroundings and say WOW, what a beautiful sight?
And wonder why its so beautiful?
How often do you ask youself how many other countries have what we have? Or how even the poor here can be so much better off than the poor in another country?
How is it that you can wake up in the morning and get in you car, Drive to the store, Grab a few fresh bagels or whatever the hell you like , Bring them home to your family and enjoy a nice breakfast? Or how those bagels got there?
How is it that you can wake up in the middle of the night and walk to your kitchen and turn on the light, Open the fridge, and get nice fresh snack?
How is it that you can walk into a dealership and pick out a car, New or used and drive it home? and how it got there?
How does the medicine get on the shelves at the pharmacy? And where does it come from?
Now I can go on forever here. But I dont have to, Because I have the answer. And so do you.
It's just been beaten down, so you might not remember.
The answer is YOU! People like you in the past, And people like you now.
You make these things possible. Not government, But you. Its your drive and determination that brings these things to your life and families life. It is your heart that gives to the charity of your choice. It is your brain that comes up with a cure. It is your hands that build a house.
It is your guidence that teaches your children to do the same as your mother and father have done. And shows them the way to a better future and life.
It is not government, Or a president.
It is YOU!
It is US!
It is AMERICANS!
So the next time you listen to your President give a speech on how we must give back.
How we must change our ways.
How we must trade in our past to build a new future.
How we must sacrifice.
Remember, That it is our past that built this country.
It was our sacrifice and blood that secured freedom for billions around the world.
It was OUR ways that created the greatest civil society on the face of the earth.
Remember America. And Love it.
