"I Miss the America I Grew Up In!!!" states a meme that comes across Facebook. I pause. I am aware of the efforts to stir up discontent in our land. So, I offer a reply.
"Yes, but I am still grateful for the America we have, that I live in now. I am grateful for the comforts, the joys, the peace from war on this soil that so much of he world does not enjoy. I am grateful I can worship as I please, and utter my thoughts as I will. I am grateful I do not live in a country where the government divides me from my family, or dictates the job I will have. I am grateful for America, the one that we have. Does that star-spangled banner still wave? It does."
