I would have liked to serve as well....but I cant change my past....I guess there are really only three things one can do for ..quote un quote.. your "COUNTRY"...and that is pay taxes...serve in the military, and or serve in a political roll...but I guess one could argue the political role would really need to be on a federal level for "our country"....now I feel some people have done way more on an individual or social aspect for "our country"...like police officers/doctors/fire fighters nurses...etc....
I would say #2 is take good care of your family and raise your kids well but,
#1. Love GOD and his Son and all else will come to you.
#3. Country because without the first 2 you can't have the last one.
