Dear America,
When I open the paper, and am scared
When I turn on the news and am mortified
when I listen to the radio and am saddened
I realize that this is not good. I understand that we all want the same things; prosperity, financial security, access to food, safety, the ability to love and be love, to protect the very ones we love. We all want freedom, and many of us are daily fighting for that freedom. The freedom to say whatever you want, to do whatever you want and to be whatever you want. We all want the same things, the same basic priciples of life. The things that we are guaranteed in the writings of our founding fathers. The pursuit of Life. Liberty. and Happyness. These are things that we all want, regardless of the ways that we go about procurring these things.
But. When our government is lying, cheating, stealing and running our country into the ground financially, spiritually, emotionally and any other way possible it is time to stand up!! Do something!! We as American's need to take a stand for what is right, for what our founding fathers took a stand for so long ago. We must not forsake everything that our ancestors fought for, because it is easier to look the other way, because it is simply easier to go along with the current. America, wake up! Look around you! What kind of legacy are we leaving our children?
