.   What Freedom Means to Me      Most Americans take freedom for granted. In other words, they think of it as a genie granted them a wish. However, I don’t’ take it for granted. I realize that soldiers fight for our freedom in the United States of America. Some of the freedom we have is freedom of religion, free speech, the right to bear arms, and education, is most important to me as a person. Education is important to me because I think that it is a very important freedom in America. I’m able to go to school every day except on Saturday and Sunday. In school, I can study academics such as math, reading, and writing and do other activities like gym, music, and art. Some kids in other countries around the world around the world don’t have this freedom. I can also go to college and learn about a job or subject I am interested in, so I can have a good career. I can be who I want to be when I grow up. This is what freedom means to me.
