Strength, Courage & Fortitude: The New America.





I didn’t think I’d ever see this day.

A day when most Americans are reengaged in what’s going on around them and unwilling to compromise when it comes to standards, truth and the freedom to speak.


For decades we’ve watched as values, morals, strength, courage and fortitude have slipped by the wayside.

Culture traded hard work for coddling and it failed miserably.


Our forefathers had these qualities.

Men and women risked everything to come here.

Whether it was over the Atlantic Ocean or across the plains of America, pioneers had the fortitude to risk everything for their dreams.


But today it seems we are so susceptible to fear.

We allow fear to take our hope.

Right is wrong, wrong is right.

Weakness is seen as strength and vice-versa.


I feel we’re in good hands right now.

We’ve got leadership in our country that comes from different parties but with the same goal of making America the main priority.


I see some of my friends (in some cases former) who are sickened by all of it.

They scratch and claw at every opportunity to get in the way of change because they don’t like the direction.


As we push forward, they push against.

We see hope, they are hopeless.

We focus on facts they lean into their feelings.


It’s not easy taking a stand for what you believe in but look how much we’ve seen change in just a few short weeks?

Yes, and that was because you took a stand.

You said “no, this is crazy.”

A dark, thick line has been drawn in the sand and people are unwilling to go back to how it was.
