It is important to be thankful for the safety we are provided by being citizens of the United States.

In most countries, there are crises happening all around. The people of the countries that are in civil war and their government has been taken over, live their lives in fear. In the United States that is not something that we necessarily have to deal with. We are lucky enough to have a military that is capable of protecting our country so well. We do not have to deal with , warfare on our front, that would leave our citizens in fear. Yes, it is true at times there have been threats posed on our country. For example, the attacks on 9/11. This is remembered as one of the most tragic events in American history, but luckily we had both civil servants and military reinforcement risking their lives to try and fix the damage of this attack. This is an event that showed how all of the officers in charge of our country’s safety will not stop in protecting it, no matter the risk. As America as a whole, we all need to take more time to be thankful for the security we are given and life, and remember that it could not be like this.
