Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Proud to be American! I am a new Citizen, who so proudly rose the flag to fly it in the sky just a short year ago. The words of the Oath of Allegiance still so fresh in my mind and edged in my heart for ever there to stay. I am going to treasure these words of honor and pledge to the Nation, I Love so much and will admire as long as I shall live. I was born in a country, enslaved by the enemy at that time, and never will forget the picture my father secretly showed me when I was just a child. It was a beautiful statue with a torch, held so high that it brought light and hope for all of us in the darkest of times. That is still the light, so bright that brings together all Nations yearning for peace, and gives us mankind`s most valued asset - the Freedom to share. When so horrible a tragedy struck my so beloved new home, the United States, I took out the flag to fly it again in the sky on the wings of gentle winds, just as proudly as I did last year. The torch, now in every American`s heart has became a guide to overcome evil and horror, and gives us the light to carry on and fight the fears, that were planted so crudely into our peaceful days. The American people are so strong, like never before, and with tolerance in their hearts they are calling out for justice in our troubled world. On a sunny so beautiful September morning sudden suffering crashed down on a great Nation. In the black cloud of vaporized concrete and death Heros in line of their duty gave their own precious life to save innocent human beings. This is the spirit of the country I name so proudly my own. We, the people with many different heritages and faith, we stand all United in our deepest sorrow but we stand United in our wish too, to rise above this unimaginable tragedy with the glory of our History and the Flag, Red, White and Blue. We fight for a higher cause, with all our strength and soul, with the assurance in our mind that we are going to win not just this battle, but also the war against terror, all over the world.
