where character counts and integrity is the keystone

Birth of a Nation

Ideas born of innocence &
growth into Revolution.
Ideas of freedom,
self-reliance,
and democratic governments.

Shadows of past
beliefs – being blessed
by the new light.
Changes . . .
for better –
for worse;
spurred by an Enlightenment.

REVOLUTION . . .
it became our answer . . .
INDEPENDENCE . . .
it became our cause . . .
STRIPES & STARS . . .
they became our flag . . .
and the lands of our birth became
OUR NATION.
