Why I love America
It’s easy to crack on. It’s easy to hate. But through it all I never forget: damn I love America. Here’s why…
People who care, who try, who cry.
The land that goes on and on. And on.
Creeks and lakes and coasts and bayous and fields and farms.
Diversity. Ingenuity. Tenacity.
Rocking chairs in Charlotte airport.
Mountains as far as you can see.
Large parking spaces.
Apple computers.
The New York Times.
Barristas who know your name. Suit salesmen who know your size . Store clerks who’ll tell you, “It looks great on you” whether it does or not.
College football.
A refusal to accept less than the best.
Hybrid cars. Windmills. Organic farming.
Freedom of religion–and freedom to disagree.
A political system we can trust. A court system too.
People who love their jobs.
It’s huge, but still small enough to run in that old friend.
Free wireless. Jazz. Baseball.
The distinct character of each state.
A volunteer military.
A hopeful future.
A place to call home.

The land of Ben & Jerry’s New York chocalate fudge ice cream. They can keep heaven!
It’s always great to see someone who realizes how great America truly is. Sometimes, we just need to stop and smell the roses. We live in the greatest economy the world has ever known, we ARE the land of opportunity and we were blessed with founders who gave us the foundation to pursue what makes us happy.
Keep spreading the word!
Well, in light of recent posts, non-flammable Christmas foods seem like they would fit well here.
Also the fact that for several months Iowa can be the most important state in the country, and then within 24 hours no seems to remember it exists because New Hampshire is just too important. Amazing.
Just don’t be sick if you’re poor
