Independence Day 2015 - a fashionable, fabulous flag . . .



Dear You!

Explosively yours on this holiday, I contemplate the fashionable and fabulous American flag.  Just a symbol, yes, I know, but considering the recent murders in a South Carolina church (and a shooter who I can confidently label as racist-stupid) and the related actions to tank the NOT fashionable or fabulous Confederate flag, I just had to create a list.  Five reasons why our flag is fashionable and fabulous:

1.  The stars  cleverly represent our twinkliness (I know that is not a proper word, but indulge me), our shine-on optimism that refuses to buy the dire bullshit of Rush Limbaugh.

2.  The (straight line) stripes represent the wisdom of that old factoid "the shortest distance between two points is a straight line".  And that, my friends, is our version of getting radically liberating things done quickly . . . sometimes, at least.

3.  The passionate red is . . .  passionate.

4.  The serious blue is . . .  serious.

5.  And finally, the entire symbol itself reminds us that only here can a little boy like Donald Trump grow up to run for President!

Today, the warm, dreamy Gulf of Mexico, is a joy, a blessing, and a seriously passionate reminder to me that it is really, really GOOD to be here.  Here, saluting that fashionable, fabulous flag.

Happy Birthday to us :)

XO,
Citizen Joyce
