My life became one long-running Oprah
show, minus the free luxury accommodations
in Chicago, and Oprah. (paragraph 1)
I tried my best to be a worthy representative
of my homeland, but, like a Hollywood
celebrity relentlessly pursued by paparazzi,
I sometimes got tired of the questions.
(paragraph 9)
This avalanche of kindness did not make
our impending departure any easier.
(paragraph 16)
If someone had been able to encapsulate
the kindness of these second-graders in
pill form, the pills would undoubtedly put
many war correspondents out of business.

amazing

explanation:

i really like the quality of it and how it's been played keep it up

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
