Just An Average American Joe Vs. The World

Joe was just your average, ordinary guy. He always knew that he was one lucky individual to having had beat the odds of being born in the greatest country on the planet. Out of the more than 30 million births, in the year of Joe, only 4 million were fortunate to have been born in America and, thank God, half of them were girls. Joe came to learn that he lived in the home of the free because of the brave that came before him, like his hard-charging Marine Corps Dad. He greatly appreciated that the Constitution of the United States afforded him certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. He fully understood that this happiness was not a guarantee but he was welcome to pursue it. Joe grew up with an All-American work ethic that promised: if you rolled up your sleeves and worked hard, there was nothing you could not accomplish. The Constitution is one of the all-time greatest documents of all time but it did not make any promises that there would be no obstacles or pain along the road for your pursuit of that dream of happiness. Joe knew first hand what blood, sweat, and tears meant. He never looked for a participation trophy and realized, at a young age, that he was not entitled to anything he didn't work for. He was willing to go full bore towards his goals and meet obstacles head on, which never were in short supply. He never went out looking for trouble but it always managed to find him. This is the story of an average American Joe verses the world as he encountered extraordinary experiences.
