Wishing on Stars

Tue 25 August 2009

The American Flag is MORE than cloth and dye, People!

Posted in Insight

I like to say, that you can tell a country's condition by the condition of its public flags.

Would you agree?

Well, America needs to get a life then. I look at the flags all over the place and it near kills me to see that they're all tattered and shreaded and full of holes and just flat out pathetically kept and mantained.

It's a really sad sight!

Come on, People!

That's our flag! It represents out pride!

Good gracious, its not right to be flyin' it in ribbons...

Look, if you're keepin' a flag make sure you understand it is NOT just a decoration... Its the symbol of who and what we are as a country... as a people...

AS AMERICA!!!

God Bless this Land!

I agree that it signifies WAAY more then MOST people even CARE to know... But.. in a way... there's something awesome about a flag that's been used, like, it's been in an epic battle, yet STILL waves proudly!! :D *sighs* Now THAT is the America i love! ;)

But it's cool that you posted about the flag.. i was actually recently pondering it meself! :D

I know what you mean.
I just hate to see a flag looking like that when its NOT in a battle zone... and its on a gas station... or its a wind sock on some tree, I mean what the heck is up with that... a WIND SOCK! Its not a yard ornament! Sheesh...
THATS what I don't like...
Just gets me all sorts of upset!

But you're SO right! It is awesome to see our flag defiant in the eye of opposition!

"And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?"

I can see it right now! It would have holes, smoke stains, and probably be singed on the corners, but through all the blood and tears, it beat with every wave of wind like the hearts of men below...

Epic indeed!

About Me

Wishing on stars isn’t going outside, pointing to a sparkle in the sky, and SAYING what you want. It’s going out into the world, dreaming big, taking the risks, and HOLDING what you want. It’s shooting above and beyond and landing where your heart is. “When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are, when you wish upon a star, your dreams will always come true” – Walt Disney

Wish of the Month


A broken heart will ache with every beat,
And at times you want to just admit defeat...
But though those throbs bring pain and make you strive,
You should thank them cuz they mean you're still alive
