We have been celebrating this day since 1918, that was the day we signed the armistice to end WW1. It was signed on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918. At 11am today, it all lines up.
“We do not know one promise these men made, one pledge they gave, one word they spoke; but we do know they summed up and perfected, by one supreme act, the highest virtues of men and citizens. For love of country they accepted death, and thus resolved all doubts, and made immortal their patriotism and their virtue.”
We don’t get a lot of snow ❄️ so when my son came in hollering “it’s snowing out there” the other night, I quickly slipped on my shoes and stepped out on the front porch to see. It was windy & the light that shines on our flag caught my eye.
It was so beautiful watching the flag and the snow blowing in the wind in the light 🌬 I didn’t even notice how cold it was for whole minute or two 😊
The Flag blowing in the wind with the late night snow was almost hypnotic. God Bless America!
This is my offering for my Monday Morning Moment Of Zen. Have a Great Day!
Tomorrow is Veterans Day, a special day where ALL men & women, soldiers & sailors who have served and are serving, are honored for their service. We had our parade yesterday in downtown Jackson & there will be more today and all day tomorrow!
Thank You! To all who have worked to keep our country strong and Free! God Bless America! 🇺🇸
A BIG Thank You and Salute to ALL the Veterans out there that make it happen on a daily basis!
“A veteran is someone who, at one point in his/her life wrote a blank check made payable to ‘The United States of America’ for an amount of ‘up to and including my life.’ That Is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.”
Happy Independence Day! AND – Happy Birthday America! I am so proud to be an American! And I am Thankful for all the hard work and sacrifice that has been made by so many down through the years to keep us safe and FREE! There is not another country like ours in the world & our people are willing to give all to keep it 🇺🇸
Happy Birthday America! 💥🇺🇸 “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” –Thomas Jefferson
“Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.”
~ John F. Kennedy
Stay safe out there & have FUN! Happy 4th of July!💥💥💥
The Declaration of Independence changed everything! It changed the world! No matter your politics, today is the day for Americans to celebrate and wave the flag! I still get choked up when we all stand and put our hands on our hearts and pledge the flag!
I’m proud of that “Ragged Old Flag”! How about you? #Godblessamerica!
Stars and Stripes Forever!
Have a GREAT day! God Bless America!
