Optimistic Thoughts about a Nation's Future
Optimism: hopefulness and confidence about the future. The warm-hearted feeling you receive when you take a step back and glance for a moment at the resilient, robust nation built around you. The nation where everyone is free to express their uniqueness in gender, race, religion, and sexual orientation. The nation with stout defense and solid guard throughout all branches of military. It’s not a surprise we have the world’s largest economy, and the dollar is the world’s reserve currency. We are the only Super Power on planet Earth, and that is something to be proud of. Something that should give you optimism when you think of our homeland’s future. As home to more than 316 million Americans, we have the potential to do great things. Things superior to Earth itself. America is a beacon of hope, hope for immigrants looking to start over and start living their lives anew, hope for technology advances in ways that are mind-blowing and seem unfeasible. Hope for energy, and living clean and green. And hope for the education of our future generations- those who will be running this powerhouse into the indefinite future and continuing our uphill battle to excellence. With so much in store for the United States of America, I am so optimistic about our nation’s future.

Look back at the 1890s for example, with the Jim Crow laws, when segregation towards African Americans ran rampid through our nation. Did the American people sit on the side lines and watch countless
