I BELIEVE

I believe in the land of the free and the home of the brave,

I believe in it so much that I am willing to give my life for it,

I believe in seeing no color, seeing no gender, seeing only my brothers and sisters,

I believe in this country, that we are and always will be the best,

I believe because my parents gave me the chance to believe, 

I believe becuase I come from a family of dreamers,

I believe because the promise land to my dad is now a place I call home, 

I believe because the soldiers before me gave their life for our freedom, 

I believe because I am the first of my family to serve this great nation, 

I believe because I am a "double minority", I am hispanic and I am a women,

I believe because women deserve the same respect and same pay as men,

I believe because the Army gave me that chance,

I believe in fighting for what is right, no matter color,race, or gender,

I believe in it so much that I am willing to give my life for it,

I believe in the land of the free and the home of the brave.
