To my generation I think it is important to thank America because most of the kids these days do not know about the past and do know how good they have it. One of the holidays we celebrate in America is the 4th of July; we celebrate July 4th because it is the day when the Continental Congress approved the Declaration of Independence. We also celebrate it for being the day we became a free country from Britain and France. In many generations past technology has been one of the many few inventions that has been repeatedly changed through time. For example the cell phone is one of the major functions of technology. The biggest reason the cell phone is one of the major use of technology is, social media. The average person approximately
Today most people think of the Fourth of July as a holiday to celebrate freedom. However, in
Nowadays, technology is everywhere. It is a symbol of how we have progressed as a society over the years. Technology has not only provided
“The Land of the Free” this saying has a very strong meaning that we often forget, this means that America is free. Free to say what we want, and most of the time do what we want. Everyone always overlooks how important holidays and historical events are and we get too caught up in the amusement of them. While some people believe that getting rid of all holidays and historical events is a good idea, no holidays should be eliminated because, they honor all different cultures and they help the economy by providing more public and private industry, they have shaped America one way or another, also these holidays and historical events make America diverse.
On Independence Day we commemorate the birth of America as a free nation. But even more than that, we commemorate the birth of Americans as free men. At a single stroke, the Declaration of Independence and its ideas set America free from England, and set Americans free from their own government. The Founding Fathers instituted America's government to protect the freedom of its citizens, and to secure their rights to "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness."
In the skies it will overcome fear give thanks to veteran. An American is a free person who can make his or her own choices. We can be a citizen with the people of the street. The veterans fight for the lives of other people so they can be free. Some do not understand the reality of their lives. They fight for liberty and justice they protect the justice and the liberty of this American country. They give so much to their country. We don't give thanks to the soldiers that help we just don't care. They give us their love and kindness. There are many ways we can give back to our country as well as our commmunity.
As a child I was always looking forward to the one day of the year when the sky would light up with American pride and patriotism. As the fireworks would shoot into the air, I would stare with amazement and pride. I have always looked forward to this meaningful day.
On July 2, 1776, American achieved its independence from the British and was recognized as a country, but at this time slavery was still in full force. I do understand when someone tells me why celebrate a holiday if your people are still enslaved? I myself don’t really value the holiday as a freedom day, but I do still respect the sacrifices that were fought for my freedom. A lot of people on social media were voicing their harsh opinions regarding the holiday and don’t really observe it as a day of independence. I think there is a lot of awareness regarding the true meaning of the holiday and how black people don’t want to celebrate a holiday that has little to not meaning to them.
Holidays are an important part of being an American. Our generation says it's the things you do to show you're an American. As an American we have many holidays they are celebrated around our country that nobody else has a reason to celebrate. An example is the holiday Independence Day (the Fourth of July). No one around the world celebrates the Fourth of July but the Americans. We celebrate this day because it shows when we first got our independence by adopting the Declaration of Independence. This broke the country out of the thirteen colonies. It also shows that we didn’t have to follow another's rules and became the United States of America.
Technology these days can be as confusing as math! Daily life has changed in many ways over the past hundred years because of advancements in technology. First, the way of how society reads in the modern day has been reinvented from how people used to read a hundred years ago. Second enjoying games with friends is nothing like it used to be when technology was not present. Last, current communication is tremendously more advance than it was in the past when smartphones were not a “thing.” As can be seen, there is no denying that daily life has evolved because of newer technology.
But even more than that, we commemorate the birth of Americans as free men. At a single stroke, the Declaration of Independence and its ideas set America free from England, and set Americans free from their own government. The Founding Fathers instituted America's government to protect the freedom of its citizens, and to secure their rights to "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness."
People start to use those technological inventions as their daily life needs.People’s life style has blend together with technology.
The reason the United States Of America celebrates holidays is because the people or events that have in some way affected the whole country in a good way. For example the reason why the United States celebrates Presidents’ Day is because it is George Washington's birthday and he benefited the country in the best way possible however, there is a holiday where several Americans feel that it should not be celebrated which is Columbus Day. Columbus Day should not be celebrated because Christopher Columbus is not worthy of being commemorated.
Then, about two hundred years later, the computer and cell phone were invented which is where technology has come thus far (Dosoudil). Now, because of social media, anyone can connect to people around the world. Furthermore, improved technology has heightened education. As technology has advanced, people have been able to transport and communicate faster and more efficiently. This has led to the opportunity of make schooling and continued education a privilege and eventually a priority in people’s lives. In general, people have been able to understand the world and how it works better. The Internet allows someone to simply type in what they want to know and it pulls up resource upon resource on just a single subject. As one can clearly see, technological advancements have changed society in more ways than one might expect.
If you took a look in the past and present, you will see individuals have changed massively. No time in the past has there been many innovations evolved so rapidly with endless offering solutions in the world such as music to air travel and medicine to banking, all these transformed the way we live today. What truly is the most significant innovation is communication technology. The establishment of modern communication technologies has reformed the way today's generation interacting in society. While some people feel that this kind of technology has problems, moreover, have outcomes that are beneficial to the world.
Watching my grandpa use an IPhone is the funniest thing ever. He acts like a fish out of water. Daily life has changed in many ways over the past hundred years because of advancements in technology. First, there are many changes in the way we read and the material that we read. A stone tablet is no longer used as reading material, because electronic tablets are now available. Second, the way we play games now has changed a lot. We went from playing board games to playing video games. When I was little I use to go camping, and at the camp ground me and the other kids would play a game called “Capture the flag.” It is not played as much now, because kids now want to play video games. Last, the way we communicate has changed, because of technology. We mostly text or call each other rather than talk to each other in person. As can be seen, daily life, from reading to playing games to communication, has changed in many ways because of advancements in technology.
