For the current generations, it seems that the patriotic symbols They don’t have much meaning.
We forget, perhaps we ignore, or we want to ignore, that they are the representation of the homeland, of our land, a land that gives us life and gives it to our loved ones.
We put aside that these symbols represent in a tangible way that somewhat abstract concept that is our HOMELAND.
Those symbols for which our greater They were willing to give up their lives, thanks to which we formed a free and sovereign nation, a democratic nation, with independent institutions that favor a healthy balance that avoids excesses and favors justice.
The greatest of our symbols is our beautiful flag, whose anniversary is commemorated on February 24th, commemoration dating from 1940, the year in which General Lázaro Cárdenas decreed it, although the date originated in 1934, the year in which the first legislation on national symbols was approved.
True, our flag is a cloth, but its meaning is not in the material it is made of, but in its history.
Its value is intrinsic, each of the colors has a meaning. He green symbolizes hope white the purity of the ideals of the Mexicans and the red the blood spilled by our patriotic heroes.
We recommend you read:
However, in the statement of the plan of Iguala, when the current three colors were first inscribed, white represented the Catholic religion; the green represented the independence of Mexico before Spain and the red the equality and the union of the Mexicans with the Spanish and the castes.
For his part, he National Emblem It shows important data on the country’s geography and biodiversity. The golden eagle, the rattlesnake, the cactus, the rock and the lake are representative elements of Mexico.
Today, like yesterday and tomorrow, it is time to honor our nation, it is time to place its ideals above any other, it is time to recognize in its national symbols the ideals of future, present and past generations. .
For a dignified and united Mexico, let’s make a pact.
Thank you
