It's refreshing to read a post such as this one. I am gratefully I was born an American. I have been able to pay for my eldest son to attend his first year of college. In other countries, one may need to be selected from a lottery before given the opportunity to attend college.

I am thankful I have refrigeration and heat.

I am glad I am able to drive an automobile from one side of the continent to the other without having to stop and show identification/papers at police/military checkpoints.

Sometimes, our hardships blind us from really appreciating what we truly have...our freedom.
