Only in America

Reverend Mary is kind. She always makes a point to say hello to me first. She wears red a lot. She comes to the party with her boyfriend. They dance and sometimes are even caught kissing each other on the lips.

Only in America,a spiritual center hosts a party and offers dancing, and a person of religious status shows up with her unmarried partner to public, and is allowed to freely show affection. Not where I grew up, only in America.

America is so pretty.

Reverend Mary just bought a bike which makes her feel young, she declares. She rides her bike to grocery stores and carries her shopping in the the bike's basket.

Only in America, a person of religious status can be imagined to do such a humanly thing. Because America is so pretty that all are equal, whether they are God's people or not.

Only in America I have felt so free, not where I grew up.
