Star Bangled Banner

Art in its truest form is in the eye of the beholder No two see a like Each one has their own passion what touches them is different from what the rest of the world beholds For me beauty it is in singing the Star Spangled Banner and watching people of all nations in honor with pride to be apart of the land we call America raise their hands in honor and thanksgiving It touches me to hear to hear the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave because I’m Proud to be an American Sbmitted For Sami Al-Khaliti ‘s Contest Simply, Absolutely, Utterly Art

I can feel your wonder! I have been in otherparts of the world and heard other national amthems sung or their music played, the POWER of music to "model" "mold" behavior create a group mind.

Through I do have the same viseral reaction to the song...goosebumps & I would love to sing it and be allowed that much release of passion, I don't. I don't because I know the concept of Nationalism, my country right or wrong, causes war. Perhaps, I am in error but I would love to be alive long enough to hear an anthem for the citizen of the world, the planet Earth, an anthem about what it means to be human. BIG HUGS! Light & Love
