Does seeing the American Flag being hoisted in the morning give you goosebumps?
I was driving back from dropping off hubby at work this morning and saw an employee of the Armand Hammer Museum raise up our beautiful national flag. Watching the process was a mood booster for me since I am far from a morning person. The stars and the stripes waving in the wind represents the freedom as well as opportunities that are ever present in our country and makes me so appreciative and proud to call myself an American. I feel motivated today to follow my American dream and fulfill my goals.
