These past few weeks have been interesting, haven’t they? Just when you could finally feel the optimism returning as Covid was quickly fading; BOOM, we get hit with another ‘crisis.’ This post is not about my personal opinions on the Ukraine...
To me, being a patriot means having a love for your country and its fellow citizens.
Admittedly, loving the fellow citizen part is not always easy – the past few months have definitely show us that.
The fact that there is so much division is proof that we have a lot of work to do.
But as patriots we have responsibilities.
We have to do our part to strengthen our country.
As I have posted about my gratitude, it has caused me to reflect on things in my life that I am grateful for.
It truly has been powerful for me emotionally and spiritually.
It has helped me to realize that we as Americans are more than just our politics.
It has helped me realize that life really is about helping and lifting others.
You are a true patriot and that means a lot.
The one thing we can control is those things that are close to us.
Let’s focus on improving ourselves.
Strengthening our families.
Being a more compassionate and helpful part of our communities.
Align ourselves with God and be his humble followers.
And most importantly, stand for truth.
They would do anything to help others.
They love their country.
They aren’t racist, bigots, xenophobes or anything else.
They are caring people who want to support the cause of freedom for all people.
They are what makes America great!
The most important thing we can do is keep being that person.
Serving in our families, communities, and our country.
Despite what we are called, our actions will speak loud enough that others won’t be able to ignore the goodness that is the American Patriot.
