My America

I celebrate my country everyday that I live,
everyday that I wake up free to do as
I choose, go where I please, worship in my way
and speak my mind without fear of reprisal.
I am awed by the overwhelming splendor
and beauty of my America.

We are a people joined together by love,
duty and friendship. When other countries
in the world suffer catastrophic disasters,
we Americans are the first to respond
To a call of help. With unselfish love
and caring hearts we share our money,
food, time and prayers to those in need.

I celebrate the goodness and glory
of this great country. The glory we would
not have but for the many men and women
who so proudly serve and defend
this land. I humbly salute them and those who
have lost their lives in honor of America.

I celebrate the vast number of cultures
in this country, a people as varied right
here in America as in the whole world.
I celebrate and honor the Native American Indian
who has sacrificed and suffered for so many years.

I celebrate the great institution known as family,
where love stems and flows forever.
From Mom's apple pie and wisdom, to Dad's
wealth of knowledge and guidance . We gather
together in love and laughter…..and freedom.

I celebrate our wonderful holidays!
When family and friends gather together
to share our many blessings. My heart
is full to bursting with love for my country!
