Pride Of Achievement
Do something you can be proud of. Don't just sit around singing "Proud to be an American" unless being an American is something you struggled to be.
You got to America semi-legally, did jobs no one else wanted, got ripped off by 2 immigration lawyers, but the third finally got you in while you were starting a small business and sending your kids to college. You can sing.
You were born here? Shut up and go out and find something useful to do and that you can be proud of. If all you can be proud of is where you were born, get the hell to work. You need to do something with your life, or end it.
