How I feel

It seems that it is a popular thing today for "homesteaders" to tell one and all how awful our country is. How Godless,commercial and headed to H*** in a hand basket it is. How our churches are dead and how hopless it all is. I have a couple of questions to ask them ... Which country are you going to be moving to? and..Can I help you pack? Here is how I feel.

If tomorrow all the things were gone
. . I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
. . with just my children and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars
. . to be livin' here today.
Cause the flag still stands for freedom
. . And they can't take that away.


    And I'm proud to be an American
    Where at least I know I'm free
    And I won't forget the men who died
    Who gave that right to me
    And I gladly stand up
. . next to you and defend her still today
    Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
        God bless the USA


From the lakes of Minnesota
... To the hills of Tennessee
... Across the plains of Texas
... From sea to shining sea
... From Detroit down to Houston
... And New York to LA
    Well there's pride in every American heart
    And its time we stand and say..

That I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up . . next to you and defend her still today
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
    God bless the USA

And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up . . next to you and defend her still today
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
     God bless the USA!
Thank You Lee  Greenwood for  this wonderful song!

I wouldn't want to live any where else! I love my country!
Unfortunately, as 2 Timothy 3 describes.......we are in those times. Here in America,and every where else.

I saw a program not to long ago about the funniest commercials around the globe............wow. I thought our commercials were smutty!! As bad as it is here, it is equally bad or worse, every where else!!

God Bless America!

I love this country.. I think well honestly i know that I would not want to live anywhere else. Yes things are not like they should be.. But honestly they are not like they should be anywhere.. The whole world has there problems.
I love the fact that we live on a little farm. Is it as big as i would love to have No but it is what we have and it is what i can afford to give to my children at this point in my life.
I love the fact that i can go to church when the doors are open. I do not have to check with anyone to see if i will be killed on the way there..
We live in the best country ever if you ask me. Is there room for improvement.. Oh course.. Heavens there humans here where there is humans there is always room to improve.. :-)
