Wind is blowing everywhere, wood getting torn off homes and flying through the air, boats are sinking, cars are floating, there is a hurricane. Almost no one's house is standing after the hurricane goes through but the flag is. 

Americans losing their lives everyday to horrible crimes lay cold on the ground in their coffin. While the rest of the world mourns their death the flag lays on top of them and acts as a blanket to keep them warm. 

It's the big state football game during senior year of high school. The players are getting ready and everyone is going crazy. You're thinking there is no possible way you are going to lose this game. Before the game starts everyone looks over and pays their respects to the flag. 

The United States flag to me represents freedom in the white stripes. It represents success in the red stripes. In the stars it represents people from all 50 states that fought for this country and sacrificed their lives.
