“Patriotism” to me means to hold your gender‚ race‚ religion‚ or culture highly and to show respect to your country.

Oh yeah‚ constant nagging‚ a ton of lies with a side of attitude‚ and having to regenerate a new set of lungs after every practice due to the excessive amount of running.

I believe art is anything you created from your creative mind. Art is what you find beautiful. It is simply way of impressing emotion and some art is never intended to be shared as it is so personal. We get inspiration to invent art. It is a voice‚ a language that artists can not explain what they want to say. It also can capture as imagery. I would use the principles to what I am aiming for. I will imagine what I am going to draw or paint then while I am drawing or painting I would put in the elements

These are just a few of the many things that hope does‚ and has done for people throughout history. I believe that hope mostly serves as something to give someone something to look forward to in life. I believe this because of the many encounters with hope that I have had in my life.
