On 3rd

If you’re standing on American soil, count yourself blessed. The land of opportunity has the largest GDP in the world which means people like it here. 

It likely wasn't your choice to be in the U.S. Someone before you made that happen. Which means you don't get the credit. It no doubt takes some work. Work that slips our mind. 

Do you know your great great grand dad’s full name? When was he born? 

So here we stand on 3rd base feeling a bit like we just hit a triple. The work that paved the way… The lives lost defending the way… aren’t that visible at first glance. 

Recognize the work, respect the work, and do your own work so you aren’t thrown out trying to steal home.
