Going for Gold

It's no surprise with the Olympics going on that showing ones patriotic pride, is a must!  For the past couple months I have have noticed a lot of girls, including myself, wearing red, white, and blue.
Why put away the stars and stripes after just one day out of the year?  Why not show our pride year round?
After the 9/11 attacks it seemed as if Americans found sight of what they had lost. Pride.  Webster defines pride as, delight or elation arising from some act, possession, or relationship.  When watching the 2012 Olympics there is no greater feeling of pride than seeing your country win the gold.
So why shouldn't we show our team how proud of them we are by wearing our stars and stripes 365 days a year.
Even though the summer is coming to a close and our flag shorts and tank tops will be put away.  There are still ways to wear our stars and striped.  One can always have fun patriotic nails and shoes. So next time your thinking of putting your stars away, keep them out and go for gold! 
Comment on how you plan on wearing your red, white and blue year around along with any other thought and opinions on the Olympics!
