Gratitude

We look here in America, and we can see corruption and injustice and endlessly ridiculous systems and unsettled fights and people with too many rights and just so many things wrong. And it’s terrible and disgusting at times.
Then, looking at other governments around the world like communism and dictatorships and America looks pretty damn good. Where else can you rise up and follow your dreams?
Like life, there are wondrous things and terrible things. And there are a lot of people who tell you not to complain because we have it so good. But just because we have it good, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try to make it better, right? We know we’ll never reach perfection where all is good, but that just means we’ll never run out of things to do.
