    Do not ask what your country can do for you‚ ask what you can do for your country "We have to labor‚ and to work‚ and work hard‚ to give reality to our dreams. Those dreams are for  the world‚ for all the nations and peoples are too closely knit together today for any one of them to imagine that it can live apart. Peace has been said to be indivisible; so is freedom‚ so is prosperity now‚ and so also is disaster in this One World that can no longer be split into isolated fragments." A true patriot

    English 221 21 February 2013 Caution: Take your eyes off the screen We have become a nation of distracted individuals‚ individuals with little interest of the outside world. We no longer pay attention to our surroundings. We walk the streets with our heads down tapping a text to someone from another time zone‚ and our ears plugged in to loud music. A quote from the article “Enough about you” from Brian Williams says‚ “Intimacies that were once whispered into the phone are now announced unabashedly

    Here is the Hey You Matter T-Shirt Mock-Ups with the cost breakdown listed. The adult shirts pictured are a tri-blend and the kids shirt is cotton. They didn’t have a color that would match the adult versions‚ so I used the royal blue for the mock-up. The other option is a dark navy that I will include a picture of.
