Why I am Optimistic About our Nation's Furure
Savannah Rippy
To be optimistic about something means to be hopeful and confident about it. The word optimistic can be applied to several things. Such as; a person, an idea, and to me, our Nation's future. When someone is optimistic about something, the person, idea, or thing usually means something to them, and America's future means something to me. It means a great deal to me because I live in a place where I have the freedom to make my own choices, have an opinion, and to worship our mighty God whom I love and serve . America also means something to me because it is a country that is worth fighting for. I am reminded every day of all the troops that have fallen and i am also reminded of the dedicated military that works so hard to make our home a better place. I am able to put all of my trust into my country's future and I will forever remain optimistic about it. There are so many reasons why I am so optimistic but a few reasons stand out to me. The three that stand out to me are because of the potentially strong upcoming generation, because of America's ability to stand back up after being defeated, and because of the knowledge and footsteps our past great leaders have left us. I am so optimistic about the generation to come. Right now we are teenagers and young adults but someday very soon we will be the examples and we will be the ones leading America. I have so much hope that we will not let our country down. I am optimistic because we have been shaped and molded into great people and we are so fortunate to live in a place where all things are possible. Our families, teachers, and friends have told us sometime along that anything is possible if you set your mind to it and that is why we are going to make awesome adults someday. We have the knowledge and the mindset to become anything we want. Whether we go into politics, peruse a career in medicine, work in school
