What Does America Mean To Me

What does it mean to be able to live in America? What does America mean to you? Many people have different thoughts when someone asks the question, what does America mean to you. America has several meanings, but when I think of America I think of freedom, religion, and our founding fathers. There are many other words to describe America, the words I choose is what I think is most important about America. In this essay I am showing what America means to me. These are all the words that come into my mind when someone says America. The first word I think of when someone says America is Freedom. Freedom is very important to this country. A majority of the people here either came here or are here for freedom. People fought to have freedom from Britain. Without it, I might not have been able to go to a Christian school and church. We have many different freedoms such as freedom to vote for presidents. I am very thankful that you can put your own opinion into the government. Not all countries

Having a freedom of religion is very important to me because I am Christian. I am blessed and able to go to a Christian school, which I might not have been able to do if this country wasn’t here. Religion is a big part because you don’t have to go to a certain church or school. It is a big part of why people come here for the freedom of religion. I have gone to a Christian school my whole life so it makes me more thankful that we have the freedom of religion. Christianity is part of my house and family, without it everything would be a lot different in my family and in this county. Many people are religious and many people aren’t, but you aren’t forced to have one religion which is good. Christians are able to spread God’s word to people all over because we have freedom of religion. Even Our four fathers were religious. “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” 1 Thessalonians
