My commitment to America

            America is a place to be free, a place where people can live out their dreams, make their .
             own decisions and decide what is right for them. But America is also a religious country. For .
             instance the American penny, "In God We Trust." We stand for freedom, unlike many other .
             countries who take part in a monarchy government. As Patrick Henry once said, "Give me .
             liberty or give me death." It is the one thing our nation is all about. Freedom of the people, but .
             if our freedom is threatened we have to take serious action. This action sometimes results in war. .
             War is a serious thing but is necessary in order for our nation to keep our freedom. We support .
             those who are in Iraq and those who have experienced war in foreign countries. Own prayer and .
             thoughts go out to all who have put there lives on the line to protect our country. We salute you.
             As a citizen of America, the question many have asked, "What is honors obligation?" .
             Honor's obligation is to make the people of this country say, "I am proud to be an American." .
             That we would be honored to stand on, and be apart of This great nation. With that comes a .
             crucial responsibility that we, as Americans, be willing to take at any moment. This may involve .
             serving for our country over sea's. I never thought any of this would happen to my family or.
             friends. But it did happen, my good friend Travis got a call and soon after was stationed at a .
             military camp. At first I was really mad at the people who called him and said he had to leave on .
             such short notice. But that was the one thing that helped me realize how lucky we are living in a .
             nation of democracy. .
             .
             The love of family is also a big part in contributing to America's future. If you do not .
             love your family than how can you love yourself and friends. As Russell Bertrand once said,.
             "To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.".
             And if that is the case America's future would not be worth considering.
