Americans in America?
Who has ever heard of Americans being in America? I,for one have. In america, in every other house you see a person with another nationality.In schools you see less than 50-70 american students. My definition of American is unlike the one given in the dictionary. In the dictionary its definition is being a citizen of America. My definition of that is through ancestral means. America was just a piece of land waiting to be discovered. But before anyone else came, there were Natives originating form Asia crossing from the land bridge by Russia and Alaska.Thus, the Native Americans. After America was discovered, it was inhabitied by Britishers,the Irish,and others from Europe.Nowadays you mistake people for Americans due to their skin color. If there Ancestor was in america 234 years ago. They are the real colors of U.S., the patriotic leaders.Those who are from another country but are a citizen of U.S are not true. They celebrate their home countries independence with greater pride than of that of U.S.. That itself is normal, the people from other countries are just out here to live a better life, trying to fit in to the American Dream. And why shouldn't they? It works for every other country, if you go to china you find Chinese, if you go to India you find Indians, and if you go to America, you find everyone.

Coexistence
Tornadoes hitting hard in Joplin killing over 100 people, taking houses right out of the ground. Osama Bin Laden being killed under a special operation from the U.S. 30+ Chilean miners rescued from under the ground after 69 days. The grand arrival of the Apple Ipad becoming a big event because over 3 million of these tablets like devices was sold in an 80 day period. The South African World Cup for Soccer being quite a hit, with Spain claiming the title. The Cricket World Cup with India Re-Claiming the trophy after 28 years. You’ve heard about this next one Wikileaks leaking over 600 thousand videos, documents, and articles, most of it being political. The devastation in Japan with an earthquake that also triggered a Tsunami making the condition there horrible. Massive protests in the Middle East about the political leaders that have been in command for more than three decades. Cell phones causing brain tumor and other problems in health. And then of course there is Facebook, with over 500 million active users, the top online communications service. Thus leading us into Life, where the un-expected is now expected, where one thing leads to another, and why an event causes more events to happen.
