Dear America,
So, these past couple of months have been like a roller coaster and you may be feeling like your people, and the world, are losing their faith in you. You try so hard to give us a home from sea to shiny sea, but no matter where you look, there’s always people killing each other. I want to go ahead and apologize to you for making you feel like we have all lost our hope in you. Despite what we’ve been through this past year, we are still living in the land of freedom and dreams.
This year’s election left us divided and aching. There’s been protests going around the nation since election day, and this has made the world see us as a broken nation. We may not be at our best, but we are most certainly not at our worst. America, you are still the land of freedom and dreams. You are still the land where we can freely express our feelings without fear of suppression. You are still the land that gives us hope of a better tomorrow. We are not a broken nation; we are just going through a rough time as a nation, but this too shall pass.
This rough time will pass and we will once again be united. Your people will realize that we need to love one another to stop all the hate. Don’t worry America, I promise you that this is not your end. Your land is full of survivors and that is what we will do. We will survive and overcome all the hate and division that we are currently facing.
We still have every day too look forward to, because despite what pessimistic news media will tell you, we can still make the most of our everyday freedoms. Each day, you give us plenty of opportunities to make our lives better. You are the prime example of how hard work and dedication can take a person a long way. Thanks to you, America, we have the chance to go from years of unemployment to high level management in under two years.
America, you are our home and regardless of where our ancestors came from or the challenges we face today, we will keep pushing forward until we can unite as a nation. You are the land that gives millions of people the opportunity to embrace a new culture and a new way of lie. We may all come from different backgrounds, but at the end of the day, our love for you will unite us. Your people are not perfect, but deep down we all respect one another and want to end the discord that has been tearing you apart for the past decade.
One day, we will stand united to bring you back to the great country you were, and one day we will fix the problems we have faced with race and gender for decades. It may not be today, or even within the next century, but we make this promise to you America, we will one day stand united under your flag and bring you back to be the forefront of the world.
