I don’t want anything jeopardizing my success so if I happen to meet someone with the same goals or mind frame it could work, but if not, I will have to wait until I feel I am ready to settle down. I don’t want to just prove to my family that I succeeded… I want to prove it to myself that I made it. Nothing is better than living your American Dream and having that feeling of succeeding. You just feel like the happiest person on earth. You feel like you’re unstoppable and like everything you have worked towards is finally falling into place.
We just want to be better than anyone else. It’s in our American nature. There are a lot of countries full of pride, and they will be ready for anything that comes their way. Anyone would fight for what they believe in they would feel proud of their country and wouldn’t let others ideas get in between theirs. Many were told that they weren’t going to get anything by coming to America, but they followed their dreams and headed towards America.
The American dream is sought after and imagined by everyone who comes to America. It is the main reason that people come to America; they come for freedom as well as to one day attain the idea of a perfect American dream. It theoretically symbolizes what you have accomplished in life and what you wish to one day have. In my personal opinion if any person wants come to America to live a life of happiness, be released of religious persecution and the freedom to say what you feel, then it can be accomplished. This is the first thing you get as soon as you become an American.

Everyone wants to live the “American Dream.” This is the idea is what drove Sam Zemurray to America.
This signified that Obama would not give up and ignore the racial issues America is facing and he urged every Americans to do the same. Every American must play their part ‘to continue on the path of a more perfect union.’ (Obama, 2008) To do so, Obama suggested that the African-American community must embrace ‘the burdens of [their] past without becoming victims of [their] past.’ (Obama, 2008) and believed that they are able to determine their own destiny. The African American community must be able to draw strength from their past in order to achieve a better future. The white community has to ‘realize that [their] dreams do not have to come at the expense of [other Americans’] dreams.’ (Obama, 2008) In this, Obama meant that the whites and blacks community must work together in order to fulfill their dreams. If the blacks and whites in American are able to do so, Americans will move past the racial wound that the nation has always been carrying.
It is all about the opportunities and freedom that you are given just for living in America. Being an American is about following your dreams and being your own individual. Individualism allows you to be your own person and achieve goals. Many people come to America to make a better life. Those people were called immigrants.
I am not a LGBT but it’s a community that I feel has their rights taken from them. They need their rights back since most their rights are basic human rights.

America provides endless opportunities to be granted an education that other people living elsewhere dream of every night.

I really believe that America can change the world. Being an American means you can do whatever you want in life. You can be from a doctor to an architect to even a garbage man no one will judge you everybody will accept you for what you are. Being an American means a lot more then you think.
