I think patriotism( in the context of being a US citizen) is doing your best in everyday life to truly make this country land of the free. Helping fellow citizens in need, contributing to your community and society, setting good examples, protecting our natural resources, showing respect and goodwill to all citizens, ect., ect.

In short, acting as if you are the country itself, claiming its responsibilities and burdens and projecting it to the world around you.
