Freedom, Use It Wisely
By Rachael Lambert

 


People attending a church serviceIsn't it sad, all those countries in the world that have so few liberties? Look at us! Americans have all the freedom we need, and then some. So many people do not look at it in this light. All they do is abuse their freedom. For example, some children in places like Ecuador and Afghanistan want to have more school, while some kids here in the U.S. skip school because it is "too hard" or "too long".

On the other hand, plenty of people are faithful Americans. Those people can do whatever they can for the needy, such as donate money and goods. Faithful Americans also vote. Some countries are under communist rule, and have no say whatsoever in their laws and/or leaders.

Lady standing in front of voting boothIn my opinion, a true American is one who will find time at least once or twice a month to do a good deed fore (sic) someone else or for the less fortunate. They should go to church as often as they can. They should respect their freedoms and vote regularly.
