It is so nice to see America through the eyes of someone who appreciates the good in our country, without denying its flaws. Thanks for sharing this, Liz!

It's comforting, isn't it? And a reminder of who we actually are instead of who our government tells us we are.

Wow. I am reading through tears and totally blown away. What does it say about us that we are blind to everything this young man has learned about America? Liz thank you for sharing this powerful message. It is echoed by the thousands of visitors for World Cup who also found much to love in the people here. We need to remember after they all go home.

Isn't it wonderful? I was so happy to be able to use it here and on my blog, too.
