Happy Flag Day, fellow crusaders! Today marks the 240th anniversary of our flag’s official adoption. That would be June 14, 1777 for those keeping score.
While the look of our flag has changed over the years with the addition of a few more stars here and there, the dream it stands for stays the same. And while it’s clear that we don’t agree on everything, our flag serves as a reminder that we all play a part in making that dream a reality.
What is that dream?Well, that’s the great thing about the American dream, it’s always changing and evolving. We live in a country where despite our shortcomings, everyone is allowed to dream. We’re not perfect, but we strive to be better. While we definitely have had our fair share of growing pains, at the end of the day we hope for the best and work towards a brighter tomorrow.
On that optimistic note, I’ll leave you with a few patriotic tunes from our past and present…
