What Is The American Spirit? .
OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS I HAVE GIVEN A LOT OF THOUGHT TO WHAT IS THE AMERICAN SPIRIT.
SO THIS IS WHAT I THINK GOD GAVE US A MIND AND HEART AND
FEELINGS SOME USE IT SOME DONOT AS I WATCHED THE LAST SUSPECT
GET ARRESTED I SAW TEARS OF JOY NOT ONLY TO THE BOSTON PEOPLE
BUT I FELT TEARS OF JOY MYSELF ,I SHED SOME TEARS OF
HAPPINESS
THAT RELIEF WAS MADE AND I FELT HAPPINESS AN SECURE . I
PRAISE THE
FBI THE BOSTON POLICE AND MEDICALTEAMS OF BOSTON. IT GIVES
ME A
SENSE OF SECURITY AND GOOD FEELINGS TO KNOW WE AS AMERICANS
CAN COME TOGETHER IN A TIME OF A NATIONAL THREAT.
AS WE WATCHED THE TV ANOTHER DISASTER OCCURED IN WEST
TEXAS A FERTILIZER PLANT BLEW UP AND
KILLED MANY PEOPLE AND INJURED MANY OTHERS. THIS WILL TAKE SOME TIME TO GET
OVER . BOTH THE INCIDENTS 1 A TERROR ACT ANOTHER A DISASTER A TRAGEDY .BUT WE
MUST MOVE ON ,CARRY ON WE MUST BE AWARE OF THE PEOPLE AROUND
US WE MUST PROTECT THE SPRIT THAT LIVES IN AMERICANS .
MANY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WHY DID THESE TWO MEN COME TO
AMERICA AND LIVE AMONG US AND THEN BLOW US UP WITHOUT FEELINGS THIS I KNOW THEY
WERE NOT OF OUR CREED THE PEOPLE THAT
HAVE THE PRIDE TO STAND UP AND FACE THE ENEMY AND SAY WE ARE AMERICANS AND WE
DONOT KILL AMERICANS FOR THE FUN OF IT. WE LOVE OUR HERITAGE AND WE LOVE OUR
COUNTRY WE STAND UNITED IN THIS BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY AND WE ARE FREE TO EXPERIENCE
THE BEAUTIFUL SCENERY FROM COAST TO COAST AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE . GOD BLESS
AMERICA LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT.

THIS IS ANOTHER STORY I FOUND ALSO I HOPE YOU ENJOY..
Recently, I found my self in a deep thought
proving discussion with my uncle.My uncle, is the ultimate devil's
advocate and he insist on thinking outside the box and often finds himself at
odds with the conventional wisdom on a variety of subjects.Although
conventional, is never a word I would ever use to describe my uncle, I must
admit, he has forced my to think about certain things and even if I don't
always agree with him I like talking with someone that forces me to
think.I do enjoy a discussion that challenges my intellect.
Recently, my uncle said , that their really was no reason to worry about politics because throughout history, almost every president America, has ever had has had some kind of character flaw of some kind or another and yet in spite of this America, has survived. As I considered my uncle's words on this subject I realized that he is basically correct in his thinking. Washington, was a great general but he owned slaves. Jefferson, was a great statesmen, but he had an affair with one of his slaves. Franklin, was a brilliant politician but he was known for several indiscretions.John F Kennedy, certainly was a popular president and he was popular with the ladies including a few of some notoriety that were more than friends.In more recent times, one can recall the Clinton, affair of the nineties that ultimately lead to his impeachment by the House he did manage to survive impeachment because of democratic support in the Senate.
Now, Former CIA directer David Petraeus, becomes the latest causality in American politics forced it would seem to resign because a moral indiscretion.And though the full truth about what really happened in Benghazi, may never fully be known and in spite of the fact conservatives just lost an election, I will never stop being an American. Although this country, is not perfect and many of her leaders have been far from perfect throughout her 236 year history, I am still proud to be an American. I has been said, that the spirit of a man, is stronger than anything, that can happen to it and the same can still be said of this nation.America , became a great nation not because everyone of her leaders were perfect but because America, was founded on traditional Christian values.and if she does fall, it will be because the American people, chose to remove those values from their culture and their daily lives.
Some, criticize me for writing words such as these still others say, mere words will never make any real difference.It will take more than a cynical attitude, to stop me for fighting for the traditional values this nation was founded on and it should take more than a lost election, to break the spirit of conservatives, in this great nation. America, was founded on traditional values and a deep belief in the principal that God rules in the affairs of men and indeed God, is the author of freedom and liberty. The Bible, says, in II Corinthians 3;17 "Where the spirit of the Lord is there is liberty." I only know that I will continue to fight for traditional values in this country and with my faith in God, and with his guidance nothing, will break my American spirit. Faith in God, is the essence of the American spirit and I will not be ashamed or ever apologize, for being an American, and I pray that the majority of Americans, in this nation, feel the same way I do. As always, my friends, these thoughts remain, just, some words, to think on.
