Aussie Flag
In 1993 I moved to American and lived for 2 years.
I couldn’t believe how patriotic they were. The Stars and Stripes were everywhere – outside buildings, schools, Universities and even out the front of many people’s houses.
Looking at this, I often thought how un-patriotic we (Australians) were – you rarely saw the Australian flag anywhere, let alone out the front of people’s houses.
In recent years I think we have thankfully become extremely patriotic.
Unfortunately I think it has come about from September 11 and world-wide terrorism.
But it is great, the patriotism, that is, and about time. We have the best country in the world and we should be bloody proud.
Australians, wear, show, fly your Australian flag wherever and whenever you feel like it.
