DAY 6
FROM WHERE YOU ARE FROM/YOUR COUNTRY

If tomorrow all the things were gone,
I’d worked for all my life.
And I had to start again,
with just my children and my wife.


I’d thank my lucky stars,
to be livin here today.
‘ Cause the flag still stands for freedom,
and they can’t take that away.


And I’m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I’m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.


And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.


From the lakes of Minnesota,
to the hills of Tennessee.
Across the plains of Texas,
From sea to shining sea.


From Detroit down to Houston,
and New York to L.A.
Well there's pride in every American heart,
and its time we stand and say.


That I’m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I’m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.


And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.


And I’m proud to be and American,
where at least I know I’m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.


And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.


I LOVE this song! Every time I hear it I tear up because I it reminds me instantly that how blessed I am to have such an amazing family, friends, and to live in this spectacular nation where I as a person, citizen, and especially being a woman can speak my voice whatever it may be. I feel inspired to always speak my voice, my heart, my true essence because I know that in other places it is forbidden.  As I raise a son and daughter I am proud to let them express themselves and to teach them that EVERYONE' voice no matter how it my differ from their own is just as special, important, and true to them. We are ALL children of the Divine. 
SO SO GRATEFUL FOR THIS GORGEOUS COUNTRY
