Freedom


Boys, I want to tell you a story that has a meaning. There was a boy that had three turtles.
They had a beautiful terrarium with rather low sides. They had everything they needed except
one thing . . . FREEDOM. Every chance they had, they would climb out.
People in many countries in this world lack the same thing, FREEDOM. But not in America.
In America, we have Freedom of Speech, Freedom of the Press, Freedom to go wherever we
chose, the Freedom to Worship God as we wish, and the freedom to choose people to govern us.
A boy like you can grow up to be whatever he dreams of being. This is why I love America.
Don’t you? Good Night!


Don't Give Up


To be good at anything you have to believe that you can do it and then practice it until you
can. There's no easy way to become an expert. You have to keep at it, over and over. There
may be times when you think you just can't make it, but don't give up because it seems hard.
Few things are worth doing that are easy to do at first.
