Our Flag

I am so heartsick that so many people who live in the United States of America are so disrespectful to our Flag. I read in the news how several Flags over the Memorial Day Weekend were shredded and burned. This by American people living in America. Our Flag stands for Freedom, the same freedom they enjoy each and every day. Memorial Day is one a day a year we honor those who have given their lives (and/or limbs) in order to preserve this freedom we so dearly cherish. Our freedom has not come without sacrifice. Every time we look at our Flag, we should be reminded how blessed we are to live in this country where we enjoy so many freedoms that other people throughout the world does not have. Every American citizen should look to our Flag with pride and respect for all she stands for. . . .The United States of America. . . .the land of the free. . . .and the home of the brave! My heart swells with pride each and every time I see her flying freely in the wind!
