Answer 5

yes... I live here... so she's my homeland, the Mother Country... it where my loyalty lies, my pride is apparent, and my flag flies..... it's why my friends died in war and my dad never forgot one..... it's a tightening in my throat when Old Glory passes by in a parade... it's a cry for peace that screams out of me.... here I live, here I'll die.. and here is where my love is.....

Answer 6

No, definitely not a spiritual connection. But when I see other Americans I know that that is one of the many things that we have in common. I enjoy others cultures also. It's interesting that you say spiritual though, maybe that's why people are more patriotic because they believe in so many of the policies of their country and feel so attached. Can't really describe what I'm saying in writing too much. 1

Answer 8

I'm American, and feel a spiritual connection to the land more than anything else. I've walked, hitchhiked, trucked, biked all over America. Whosever flag flies, and I definitely like the one there now, I am an American because I've come from the land. In fact, anywhere west of the Mississippi is my home.
