I'd like to talk about a country that is always giving with little to no help or appreciation in return. I am proud to live in such a country. My mother has always said " do on to others as you would like for them to do on to you". I live in a country that lives by this rule. My confusion in this type of thought process comes when we put other countries above our own. We are always willing to step in to lend a hand whether it be in war or assistance due to some type of disaster. We have helped countries that hate us, even ones that don't want our help. Yet we are still there for them. Billions of dollars are spent to help such countries. My concern is our country, especially in current times, too is suffering. We too have those who suffer from homelessness, starvation, and lack of health care. There are those who are losing there homes, jobs, and way of life. Yet there seems to be little to no funding to help such people. I think that its great to live in such a giving country but we tend to forget about our own. We too need help, and only we can change things to make it better. So those who are generous remember when donating to check into your local Red Cross, Food Banks, and the many other programs that need funding to help improve our community. Don't forget we to our suffering a time of crisis. Again I am proud to live in such a giving country, just remember our country too needs help.
