I am proud of my country because we are free and anybody can do anything. Electing Barack Obama was a good thing for this country it shows people you can become anything you want to be. We suffered a lot of stuff throughout the years. A lot of people know a lot about patriotism because it is important a lot of people fight for our country and try there hardest to win. People in the war shouldn’t die the way they die. A lot of people are very patriotic. That’s why we celebrate Memorial Day. A lot of people look up to god and our    country. Our flag was still there when we fought our hardest. People in every state believe in patriotism. Patriotism is authentic.

 People in the United States believe in patriotism. A lot of people have pins they wear that symbolize it. Eagles also represent patriotism. A lot of stores are closed on patriotic holidays. A lot of people celebrate on patriotic holiday.Most people spend time with their family and friends on patriotic holidays. There are usually fireworks on patriotic holidays. A lot of older people know more about patriotism then younger people. It shows people they can do anything they set their minds to. A lot of people are rock solid serious about patriotism.

Some people in other countries don’t understand why we celebrate it like we do. When you’re a Girl Scout or Boy Scout you learn a lot about pride and patriotism.

Friends

Authors note: I wrote about friends because I always think about my friends from my old school and I am always worried about making new friends at this school so I wrote about the qaulitys of a good friend and this is exactly what my best friend is like.

I think that people walk in and out of your life but a best friend stays in your life. They are true to you. You should use your head when it comes to friends. They have a special place in your heart. Good friends give you good ideas and always stay in the back of your mind

You should have faith in your best friends. Having them always helps you through life and school. It is normal to have them having a friendship is beautiful. You can learn from them. Friendship is a circle of ups and downs.

Your best friend is there for you when you’re sick they always come through whether you need comforting or notes taken. They should be the best flower in your garden of friendship. You should be comfortable with your friend and never have to sit in silence. They don’t walk behind you they don’t walk in front of you they walk right next to you. They should be better than the friend that isn’t loyal that doesn’t stick with you or the friend that doesn’t risk there life for you

You and your best friend should share smiles, wipe each other’s tears away, and your friendship should grow through the years, your friendship should be the most wonderful part of your life. They are your star. You don’t need a lot of things you just need your friend by your side. They should never be able to say or do anything to make you mad or sad. They should be there for you, you should be able to tell them any secret, and talk about anything, talk about dreams and wishes, someone that doesn’t hide things from you, always holds your hand, could stare at the sky with you forever, stays by you, doesn’t do anything but smile with you, stays in your heart, never goes away and is there when you need them. Your friend is like your guardian angel.

Your friend holds your umbrella for you in the rain. They should be there with you through the hard and rough times. They should be your 4 leaf clover. Your friend should be like the sun. they should love you for who you are.
