Wounded Glory

A few days ago, I was roaming around the community in search of  a waving flag in the deep of the night.  I belong to a photography club and thought it would be great to enter Old Glory in a photo contest.  After shooting several shots, I downloaded the pictures to my computer.  All of the photos, this one caught my eye.  I didn't notice the rip until later.  My sister thought it was symbolic and my father blurted "Wounded Glory".  I thought about our history: our native Indian brothers and sisters, slavery, all the wars, economic depressions and 9/11...after all of these momentous occurrences, we still STAND!  Bless, oh Lord, Our Country.
