Being an American can mean many different things. Everybody has a different way of defining what an American is. Being an American and owning property here are essential and can offer a wealth of incredible opportunities. But it may also be challenging. Being an American citizen, making sacrifices for your country, and working hard for it are all aspects of what it means to be an American. Being an American can take many different forms. Some examples include serving in the armed forces, growing up and living here, and enjoying rights due to the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

I've learned that even with the flawed system we have here in America, its an improvement over the past. We Americans though through the ups and downs have stayed united under one flag, our freedoms are only getting more and more as we unite together. Yes America has its dark past and its definitely shouldn't be forgotten. My view on American culture has stayed the same.
Reading Winter dreams moved me because i can understand Scott Fitzgerald struggle and issues with the country that treated him so poorly.
