One day I saw my daughter wearing a patriotic bandana, and she reminded me of a contemporary Lady Liberty. I took the flag from my front porch and asked her to use the flag as a support to stand up from the ground as if she were recovering from being knocked down. Her face reflects the determination of the nation after 9/11. The gold cross on the flag pole is like the one on top of the flag at my church, and physically placed above the flag symbolizes the nation (flag) under God (cross.)
