Happy 4th Of July!

I want to take a minute to write down my feelings about how grateful I am to live in this country. I normally do not write down my feelings on this blog but I would indeed be very ungrateful if I did not write something now. I love this country. I am glad that my mother decided to come here on an exchange student program. I am glad I was raised here with each of my siblings and with the beliefs of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I am truly grateful for a nation where we can and have the right to believe in religion or not if we choose. I know there are many problems with our nation but there is still so much good. I hope we can look to the good and try to be better ourselves.
