Personal Narrative: My Salary For The United States

The desire of serving in the military was deeply rooted in my younger self. At the age of fourteen, I immigrated into the U.S. to reunite with my father. Thanks for the governmental funds toward low socioeconomic families, I am beyond grateful for receiving food stamps, obtaining student loans, and getting work-study benefits for

As I grew up and shared the amazing fact that I was born in a different country, I was constantly asked if I was a U.S citizen. I would always answer yes and explain that my mother had my documents hidden in a bureau, but I didn't know why I was asked so frequently. I didn't pay any attention at first, but the urge to ask my parents grew stronger and stronger until one day at the age of twelve, I decided to ask my parents. That day, I received the news that would change my life forever. With tears in their eyes, I remember my parents telling me the dangerous events that they had to surpass in order to enter this country. I remember how they told me about the little girl that lost her life from dehydration as they crossed the desert and how

In other words, were supposed to thank them because other people will not serve for our country. They protected us in many different ways and we United States don’t see it yet. To emphasize why I appreciate them is because most of my family went to the military and I respect them for that. Therefor, I would go the military because half of my went to the military and I want to follow my family footsteps because I want to say that I served for my country. In the other hand, the

I have been a part of this great nation for 80 years. From the time I took my first breath as a baby to this exact moment of 1940. Over the years, I have traveled to experience and witness life changing events. Due to my past, I have gained a true sense of what it means to be an American. And believe me, America is something to be proud of.

America’s Gift to my generation, when I think of that statement I think about how grateful I am to live in this amazing country. This country has so many images red, white and blue. From the skyline of New York City to the hills of tennessee the traditions in Chicago. The pride in Los Angeles. Cross Country to Washington D.C to the National Archives building. The building of tradition, pride, joy and most of all freedom. America’s Gift to my generation we take for granted all the opportunities we have.

What is America’s gift to our generation? If you ask anyone in America this question, they must ponder about for a long time. Why? Because this question has a different meaning to each one of us. America’s gift may be freedom, or it may mean safety. Although, each of us may have a different answer to this question, we all owe our thanks to the same people and place: America and its veterans. Without our veterans, we would never have such as great place to live and survive in. Without America, we wouldn’t have the freedom, opportunity, and safety that we take for granted. The hardships of America’s past have brought forth a great abundance of these gifts. Our country became a great paradise, people have the key to having a great life. All

Im proud to have things that I have now,Without my generation there would be no freedom,without freedom our lives would be miserable and torn apart.Im glad our veterans fought for our country, they risked their lives for our country to stay in peace.If we didn't fight we would be controlled And be told what job to have ,how many kids we can have or they will tell us where we live.Veterans did anything they could to defeat our enemies,They never gave up ,they never stopped they kept on going until it was over.Im also glad that we have civil rights without civil rights people would still be held as slaves and they would still be getting beat by their owners.The biggest thing that i'm proud about is equal rights ,there should have never separated

My generation is thankful for the pathfinders who glorified this nation in countless ways, they built a beacon of hope for generations to come. Fighting for freedom, equality, unity and the pursuit of happiness is what they envisioned which would allow their posterity to lead an exceptional life.

Everything our country has to be thankful for is because of you. You fight for our rights, for our freedom. You are the foundation of our country. People may forget how privileged they are. They forget you risk your life. There is not many places in the world where men and women who they have never met will fight, with their lives, to grant the rights for the people. They forget what America stands for. They forget why American is so great. They forget that not many other people in the world have that privilege to birth given rights . You protect and defend Americans' freedom and way of life. You have fought for our country, veterans and flag. You risk your time. The time you get to spend with your family, so we are able to spend it with

We were lucky as a country to have many men and women volunteer their time and lives to fight for our country. We thanked and repaid them in many ways. The soldiers that fought and sacrificed many things for us have not been forgotten.

My life in the United States hasn’t always been so well. I watched how my parents struggle to progress in an alien country. I watched sweat along with some tears drip from their faces. I watched how they dedicated their entire lives working hard for us and

The past generations of America have passed down so many amazing gifts that we take for granted such as freedom of speech, endless opportunities, and diversity. These remarkable individuals have modeled a strong work ethic that challenges Americans to ultimately succeed in life. For example, our generation realizes that what you need is much more important than what you want as well as to never pass up an unforgettable opportunity.

As an American it is so important to remember the soilders who have served and who are currently serving. Living in the United States for thirteen years is a total blessing. I can go to sleep every night knowing that I am free and have rights to a lot of things other countries do not. I have several family members who have severed and are currently serving. I have cousins who move every 4 years and some that stay right here in Tennessee. I have a 94 year old, almost 95, great grandfather who fought in World War II and the Korean War. He is very proud of his service and you can tell that by just talking to him about it. Everyone who serves our country are our heroes and should be remembered and appreciated. So many people have given

America, the most majestic, beautiful, and free nation in the world. I am proud to be an American citizen. I could not imagine living anywhere else in the world. This nation has so much to give. Natural resources, vast oceans and rivers, majestic mountains, and fertile valleys. The freedom that this nation offers to me and my family is an honor and a liberty that I will never abuse. I am 12 years old and I revere and embrace everything this nation has to offer, however I’m sad to say many of my peers are not as enthusiastic as I am. Many of them are lazy, do not respect the public property, and do not help with anything. One of the closest things to my heart are the veterans, they sacrifice their life so me and my peers can have all

The gift to my generation lies in the people that fought for us. To the Patriots who gave their lives for our freedom. If it weren't for their sacrifice we wouldn't have all the freedoms and rights that we have today. They go through years of pain being away from their families and waking up to a new day is not guaranteed for them. I have had family members to serve and luckily enough for me they survived, that's not the case for all of them, they join knowing that they could die at any time, and they do it all for their country.
