Patriotism – Then & Now
July 4, 2016
As we get older, it’s common to, as Lionel Richey put it, “wish for younger days”.
I’m no different, but in a slightly different context.

No matter your choice of patriotic symbolism, I hope you have a great & safe 4th of July.
PS – A true patriot doesn’t conflate jingoism with love of country.
