The American Flag is a testament of hard work, perseverance and determination. It represents a country that prides itself on helping those who need help and by providing for those who are less fortunate. It is a symbol of unity to millions and a sign of peace, a sign of friendship and a sign of honor. Those who see it know they can be safe under it.

For many, the flag is something that needs to be in their presence. Most businesses within the United States will show their support by having a flag out in front of their building or by displaying the flag someplace within it. This is a sign that they are American or American supportive. And, while any other flag can fly with it, allegiance should hold that the American Flag be at the very top and at the highest of honor.

Perhaps you have seen the times when the flag is lowered. In these times, the flag represents something very much moving and sensitive. It allows for individuals to grieve and respect those who have died or have been hurt in the name of the United States. In periods of grief, the flag will stay at half staff. This can happen for any number of reasons but usually it is a sign that someone that believes in and has earned the respect of the United States has fallen.

There is always going to be division within the United States. That is due many times to the simple fact that the democracy that the country holds true is designed to allow everyone to have an opinion and to have rights. And, although not everyone will agree with every move that is made, all will stand up and defend their beliefs in a country fights for them to have the ability to disagree. The American Flag, with its stripes and stars is a symbol of freedom.
