I asked  myself a question today; "What does it mean to be an American?"  There were several answers…and they were all good.  Being an American means I have a multitude of freedom:

Freedom to think and say what I think…
Freedom to worship…
Freedom to move about…
Freedom to try, and freedom to fail…
Freedom to stand up straight and look the world in the eye…
These freedoms were not of my doing.  They were here long before I was born.  My forefathers and yours fought to win these.  I have four guarantees that they will remain; The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, my fellow Americans, and myself.  No man could ask for more.
