About a picture of a seed package, that had the American flag on one side. put it up on a wall in my house. Cropped and added lens flare and took out one star to make nine.
Benjamin Franklin famous quote" Those who would give up essential freedoms for security, deserve neither freedom nor security."

The Continental Congress left no record to show why it chose the colors. However, in 1782, the Congress of the Confederation chose these same colors for the Great Seal of the United States and listed their meaning as follows: white to mean purity and innocence, red for valor and hardiness, and blue for vigilance, perseverance, and justice. According to legend, George Washington interpreted the elements of the flag this way: the stars were taken from the sky, the red from the British colors, and the white stripes signified the secession from the home country. However, there is no official designation or meaning for the colors of the flag.
Thanks for looking.

Memorable tribute Mark to those lost. And wonderful to have no title and read your words. To take a star out- great idea.

Very apt symbol to mark the anniversary of the day the world remembers. I pray the world can find peace, soon. CC
