The morning of July 4th I asked you to read the words of the American National Anthem, to ponder it, to listen to the message it whispered to you. I hope you followed through on that.

I became aware this morning that not everyone knows the background, the history, of why we have the National Anthem…and its deep meaning. The story is amazing…full of the patriot spirit of Americans in the first 3 decades following a hard fought independence from tyranny and oppression.

The British Empire came back with all of its might to once again subdue the American spirit…to crush Americans back into submission to tyranny. The National Anthem was born of that struggle…and is worth contemplating. I’ve chosen this video that tells that story.

Please take the short 11 minutes…it will be worth your while. Then again…listen to what is whispered to your heart, to your soul.
