Foreigners often wonder why we Americans feel the need to fly our flag over our  homes. They think is is odd!

Old  Glory  represents  the  freedom  to  pursue  the  life  that  we  imagine.  This  flag  is  a reminder  that  opportunity  and  free  will  as  granted  to  us  by  our  creator  still  exists,  just  as  long  as  we  are  willing  to  stand  up  for  it.

As Harry Truman so famously said:

Thousands of men and women gave their lives so that this flag could fly, so we fly it proudly as a symbol of gratitude for the life that we are so blessed to live.
