I have been so delighted to see the flood of videos on social media of Europeans and Asians experiencing the United States for the first time during the World Cup. It's so touching to me as someone who grew up in an immigrant city in the U.S., now lives in rural America, and has been shaped so much by the myriad of cultures I've experienced and had a part of my own very, very American culture of origin.

Just another little back porch musing for y'all, but I ended up really getting to the heart of my writing and passion for traditional family values at the end, so I hope you listen to the whole thing. I'd love to hear your thoughts!
