Is the American Flag Living?{

Is the American Flag Alive? The next time you drive by that dealership with the hundred foot flag pole, look up and be sure to take in, the graceful maneuvers of the flag. Some days she looks like a feather blown about with every wind of doctrine. Some days she looks as though she is shadow boxing, ducking and dodging, throwing out vicious jabs and uppercuts, popping and kicking with every gust of wind. Millions salute her, vow allegiance to her; thousands lay to rest underneath her, while their loved ones weep over her. So, ask yourself what is so special concerning this dyed nylon four-sided figure with a cluster of symbolic stars and stripes sewn on it? What is the flag’s purpose? What exactly does it represent? Well, the easy answer is, “to each his own”. For me, SHE represents my right to raise my children in the admonition of the Lord with no controversy. For me, she gives me the right to pursue happiness and the privilege to enjoy it once I grab hold of it. For me, she symbolizes a unyielding foundation in which my family can assemble a life that’s more than abundant. For me, the flag’s principle is to build unity in the bond of peace. She also functions as a admonition to others who would like to rob that peace. For me, the flag represents the finer possessions of life… quarter pounder with cheese, Oreo cookies, Nascar, and Country music. Of course "to each his own" on those things as well.
The federal government previously gave us our answer to my original question; Title 4 Section 8(j)… The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.

Is the US Flag living? Well, for this passionate Patriot… For me, the answer is a definitive YES!
