"Am I Proud of My Country"

“Am I Proud of My Country?”

Author’s Note: I believe that the U.S. is a successful country. Anybody would be lucky to live in the U.S.A.

Yes, I am very proud of my country. It is a magnificent place to be. I’m very lucky to be living in the United States of America. We are a very strong and nouble country. I don’t want to leave this country ever.

            My grandpa fought for this country and hopefully so will I. He was in control of the radio inside of the planes they flew. I don’t care what my job would be but I won’t care as long as I’m fighting for my country. My mom doesn’t like the idea but as long as I go to college she doesn’t really care. I may not know much about all of the weapons they use or how they drive those huge trucks, but it sounds like a lot of fun even though it’s dangerous.

            Our country has a good government. We have good presidents that take good care of us. Sure enough the government asks for a lot of money once in a while, but they get back on track fast enough. They make sure that if somebody gets hurt they go straight to the hospital or get help right away. We have good jobs that benefit everybody who lives here. If a bad thunder storm, hurricane, earthquake, or tornado destroys a place in the US the government makes sure that the homes there are rebuilt for the families that live there.

            If other countries like Haiti hits huge destruction and they need help, the US is the first to volunteer. The US is a helping country. If something bad happens, people all around the world ask the same question. What is the U.S.A. going to do? Now I’m not sure exactly if we would help every single country like China or Russia, also any other countries that we had or are having a war with. We are very lucky the people who live in the US because we have freedom and allow anybody into our country. It is also a good country for people to move to when people want to make a new start.

            I just love our country so very much. I’m very lucky to live here, same as anybody else who lives here. We are not a perfect county but it’s the best country in the whole entire world to me. So absolutely positively definitely, yes. I am proud of my country.

Horses, U.S.A's favorite animal

Horses, One of The U.S.A.’s Favorite Animals  

If you feel like there should be more than one National Animal for the US, you are not alone. We should be thanking the animals that helped us throut the years. Horses is a good example if you love horses like I do.

           

Ever since people started coming to the U.S.A. horses have been helping us out with traveling and moving supplies like wood, food, and water. They’ve also been loving pets, all for probably more than a hundred years or two. They’re very beautiful and kind. Some horses are known for saving lives. We used them for going to war too. People still make horse movies, so that’s got to count for something. Horses are the U.S.A.’s best friend.

Horses are amazing pets. I’ve always wanted to have a horse. So, it would be so cool that every American should have a horse or at least have the chance to if some people don’t want a horse. Though of course there wouldn’t be enough horses for everyone, so that’s never going to happen. Horses make great pets because they are very loving and they bond with their owners. They also are very hard workers.

Farmers love to have horses to help them out too. They use them to help plant things by making them pull a plow that leaves a pathway for food to be planted. Some people still ride horses around their neighborhood if allowed. Kids love to ride horses all the time and so do some adults still. Farmers like to make their horses have babies so that they can sell the babies for a lot of money.

Horses are used for entertainment. Racing and horse competitions. Horse competitions like barreling, jumping, and shows that show what tricks other peoples horses can do. Smaller people are lucky because they get to ride and race horses. By the way, they are called jockeys. There is certain types of horses that race each race. I believe that only stallions can do the racing like the Kentucky Derby. I’ve always wanted to race a horse but that’s obviously not going to happen since I'm not a miniature person. Many horses are known and famous for winning races like Secretariot.

 My point is that horses are awsome animals with their speed and kindness. They are very beautiful. It’s a shame some people treat horses badly. Horses were and are used for certain purposes like farming and horse racing. They are the animals that helped the U.S.A the most and probably the longest. I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks that horses are awesome.
