I - Me; and individual; a committee of one

Pledge- Dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self-pity

Allegiance- My love and my devotion

To the Flag- Our standard; Old Glory; a symbol of Freedom;wherever she waves there is respect, because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts, Freedom is everybody's job.

United- That means that we have all come together.

States of America- Individual communities that have united into fifty great states. Fifty individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose. All divided with imaginary boundaries, yet united to a common purpose, and that is love for country.

And to the Republic- a state in which sovereign power is invested in representatives chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people; and it's from the people to the leaders, not from the leaders to the people.

For which it stands

One Nation- meaning, so blessed by God

Indivisible- incapable of being divided.

With Liberty- Which is Freedom; the right of power to live one's own life, without threats, fear, or some sort of retaliation.

And Justice- The principle, or qualities, of dealing fairly with others.

For All- which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine.
