PATRIOTISM

Patriotism, what is patriotism ?

Is it to cry praises of the country ?

Or is it to die for the Motherland ?

Does it mean passively following our leaders,

like a herd of sheep ? Or does it mean

rising up, pushing everyone, everything down deep

No, patriotism means to be

committed to the country where

we grew, to fight against corrupt

leaders, if they tryto limit

our freedoms, our futures,our passion,

to serve our country the best we could do.

To be a patriot does not

mean you have to be a soldier,

It does not mean you have

to be a Prime Minster. It

means you have to be devoted,

to strive hard and to be committed,

to make your country the

best, the number 1 !

To work hard, to make your

country the best for everyone.
