When I see her flying, I swell with pride. She may not seem like much to many, sadly a growing majority treat her like a cheap piece of cloth. But to me, she’s a people who refused to be oppressed, she’s a victor who saw opportunity and fought to seize it. She’s a dream fulfilled, a Hope recognized and a reason to defend. She’s strength, unity, and direction in a world which lacks these and so much more. She’s the robe that freedom wears, a splendid site and a welcoming embrace. She’s “Old Glory” and I will eternally defend and honor her with every beat of my heart. Happy Birthday America! I love you!💕🇺🇸
Words of Matt Meeks, my son's father-in-law. Well said.
