The most important "us",

Or should it be called the most important "we"?


We all have these us's and we's in our lives. We have the us that is our family. We have the us that is our friends. We have the us which is our country.

We can find them all over. The us that is the people in line at the grocery store. The us of two people sitting at a bus stop with their gazes directed straight ahead and not moving.

One of the most important us's in my life is a fairly large us. It is the us which is made up by the youth of the LB. The people who I have traveled with the camps and rally's. The us that has been part of epic snowball fights as well as lessons that have moved me to tears.

We have our own hierarchy (Norwegians please step up) but we are, at our very core, an US.
