You stand, they kneel. It’s all good.

Christine Wheeler stands for the flag even alone in the living room (letter Oct. 24). That’s awesome!

Our game players kneeling for the flag are likewise awesome. It’s kind of like praying. Yes, we’re blessed, but often the term “I’m blessed” can be a humble brag, often leaving us closed-minded. Let’s keep our minds open, even to those who appear to be different from how we are (or how you are).

She stands, they kneel. It’s all good.
