The spirit of 17 august

I couldn't find the spirit of 17 august this couple last years, the feeling of losing something i used to have when i was a kid had shown up. And i don't want my kids growing without having those feeling of nationalims of our country. i tried to introduced them the spirit by creating activities while i'm also teaching and guiding them to find back "the 17 august spirit". just yesrteday, i did things (racing and competitions) for the kids in the neighborhood with the hope that those will raise up again and refresh their memories of our Independence day "MERDEKA"
