Personal Narrative: I Am A Citizen Of US Citizens

Decent Essays
Hello, I am a citizen of the United States, and I would like to be a part of the new world. The world is turning into a treacherous place.

Only a certain bulk of people can be included in the area, but how do I prove to them that I should be a part of the elite few. I feel I should be accepted in the protected area because I am a great asset to the community; my traits are, I’m a fantastic problem solver, strong willed, driven to succeed, and I will always try to keep peace at mind by having a positive attitude.

    I am proud to be an American. We are given so many rights and freedoms that we would not be able to have if we lived in other countries or territories. However, with the freedoms and rights given to us there are certain responsibilities as well. As John D. Rockefeller says, “Every right implies a responsibility; every opportunity, an obligation, every possession, a duty.”. In my community, my responsibility is to volunteer and to help others.…
