On this day… September 3, 1777

The first American flag was flown during the Revolutionary War. Adopted just three months earlier, the flag featured 13 stars and 13 stripes, representing the thirteen colonies that united to form a new nation.

From its earliest days, the Stars and Stripes was far more than a piece of cloth. It is a powerful symbol of freedom, unity, courage, and the sacrifices made by generations who fought to protect the ideals it represents. Through war and peace, triumph and hardship, our flag has continued to fly as a reminder of who we are and what we stand for.

Honor the flag. Remember those who sacrificed beneath it. Be grateful for the freedoms it represents.

Today is National Don’t Give Up Day!

Some of the most famous books exist today all because someone refused to give up. Writers face rejection. Inventors fail. Artists start over. Students struggle. People change direction, time and time again. Today is a little reminder from your local library that you don’t need to have everything figured out... You just have to keep turning the page. 😉

Take a moment today to reflect on something you’re happy you didn’t give up on. -Or something you gave up on that you are now motivated to revisit. We hope every rejection you face brings you one step closer to a wonderful new beginning! ❤️
