I take pride that I live America, with my family and friends. I have developed a sense of patriotism especially after the terrorist attacks on September 11. As an immigrant to this country, I hold no grudge against anyone who is seeking to come here for a better life, however, there are certain things and rules that we need to understand when we make this country our home.
Be it in our recliners, our marriages, our jobs, socializing or even, or maybe most importantly and more specifically, we get comfortable in our country. We're just so damned sure, aren't we? We go to the store, to work, to school, to our parents' homes, our children's homes, church, friends, the library, nightclub, we go on vacation, and then we come home to our comfortable homes, with our comfortable lives and fall into our comfortable beds, fully expecting to wake the next day and start it all over again, because why not? Why wouldn't we? We roam our country at will with our stars and stripes waving in the wind high atop our majestic buildings, blanketing us in the comfort of the words we live by, "Land of the free, home of the brave." Every coin, every dollar bill that passes through our hands reminds us, "In God We Trust." And then
Being an American means more than just a section filled out on a person’s birth certificate. Being an American is an honor and is something to be proud of. Here, everyone has a choice in what religion to believe in, what to eat, and what to do. People even have the right to choose who should be this great nation 's leader. Here, people are given opportunities in every corner, and this freedom was achieved because thousands of men and women were willing to give their lives, in one way or another, in order for us to live the way we do today. An American takes the democratic government presented as an opportunity to help the United States strive for an even greater future; an American also gives back to the nation, serves in any way they possibly can, and an American acknowledges the history behind the success of this nation.

America is our home so we need to take care of it. If we don´t respect and care for our country, it will fall apart. We need to be responsible and make decisions that help our country become the best it can be rather than hinder it. I believe that it is our responsibility to follow the laws set in our constitution and follow our own morals.
America is like the golden gate to all; to the ones who have high hopes and dreams, or the ones who view it as the only option for a better life for themselves and their family. For decades others have labeled America as “the better life” but what does it truly mean to be an American? It means that all have the right to “The Pledge of Allegiance" and can vote for President, the Mayor, and city government officials. And be welcomed to the place of no sleep for a dreamer and a wild imagination for those who fight to make it here. To be an American is an honor and privilege, also to be free and prideful to live in the United States, finished off with high respect and love for one’s country.
“91% of Vietnam Veterans say they are glad they served in the war and 3 out of 4 of them say that they would go back and serve again, even though they know the outcome of the war”. (http://healthresearchfunding.org)
Patriotism is worldwide and the notion that America is a city on a hill and above all others is illogical. Fredrick Douglass stated that America’s founding fathers “loved their country better than their own private interests” and “staked their
Citizens in America today do not have the pride in their nation that they once had. It is a possibility that the people have pride but they are just too scared to get criticized if they show their pride which is not something that should be done. Being an American means you have pride in your country; the greatest one on earth. A huge example of pride in America was back during World War 2.
For example it is like the people who only like a sports team because they are doing stellar but when they are failing they are no longer fans of them. In a way you are married to your country. You should stand by your country for better or worse or for richer or poorer, in hardships and in times of greatness, to love and to cherish till death do us part. In marriages most people do not jump ship at the first sign of trouble; they stay and work it out. That is what we the people need to do. We need to stand by our country and work out the kinks until all is well again, in the very same way that it happens in marriages. In recent times there have been many issues with presidents, politicians, and world issues. Many people have begun to say that they are not proud of this country when, we need to stand by our country at all times. Although I do not agree with what has happened in our country I do feel that I am proud of my country, a person cannot base their pride of something or someone on one part of the life or section of it. There is a lot of reasons to be proud of America. We stood up for what we believed in and fought for our right. We won a war we were never even supposed to come close to winning. We ended slavery. We created a document that is 239 years old, that still rules our country no other country has
Everyone always asks themselves what it means to be an American. Being an American could mean different thing such as Freedom of speech, and liberty. The first thing that come in mind when asking ourselves about becoming an American citizen is the freedom of speech. For example, in this country we could say whatever we want because the First Amendment gives us the right to speak our minds freely this amendment also gives the Mainstream news media to report the news freely no matter if it is fake news or not this is one of the reasons why America is a great country, and it is also one of the reasons why I am proud to be an American. Another reason, why I am proud to be an American citizen
God shows love in the greatest ways. There are so many passages, especially in the book of John that prove what a loving God we have. He sacrificed his only son for us and if that doesn't prove his amount of love then I'm not sure what could. Everyday this attribute of God shines through anybody who believes in him. There are ways love is working in your life right now and you don't even realize it. Romans 13:10- "love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law." Going about your day with love will never steer you wrong. Even if you feel like you just cannot be loving today, try your hardest to have an attitude of love and it will change your perspective for sure. It can drastically change your personal views as a believer, the way you can apply this attribute, and how the attribute of love can draw in non-believers.
America is known in history as “The Land of Opportunities,” which has led many people to attempt the treacherous journey to experience this land for themselves. Our country was founded on the principles that the people who live there have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. I agree with Judge Learned Hand’s speech “Spirit of Liberty” that the theoretical spirit of liberty exists and is what this country was founded on. In my opinion, being an American means having the freedom to work hard and reap the benefits of that work.
Fear is a strong emotion that can make us do many things that we would not usually do in our right mind, but pride can sometimes bring out the worst in us. Pride is a sense of power and governance that many of us can have in certain citations and it can make us do many things to keep that sense of power with us. Just like in many wars pride of our own countries can make us blind to the true problem. Many militants are told to have pride in what they do because they are heroes of their country. They begin to hold that sense of pride and when they are told to go fight to die for their country they do it without a second thought because they have that sense of pride for what they do. In the same way regular civilians in a country during a
The question is that is it possible to prove the existence of God in a strictly scientific? Answer is incredibly straightforward that there is no individual in the world who could come back with a solid proof whether God exists or not. One of the primary difficulties is the lack of a general characterization of the existence or nonexistence of which is required to be proved. First of all, for the benefit of further narrative, I would like to give the most general definition of "God" as far as possible including all possible variations. Consider our world as a great computer stylish game or a social network. For such a system may well be the one who designed it, created, wrote and performs systemic organization (Everitt N.p.). If you doubt the presence of Facebook creator and administrator of this network, it will look at least strange.
