War should cease, but to be realistic has been part of mankind since the time of jesus at least,and as a former soldier and deployed, you do have a 1% of the population, normally Young guys that like the excitement..
Just doing our job, with a smile while the others crawl…. or worst
Charlie, I’ve witnessed up close and personal the toll war takes on a human soul. I’m married to a Vet who has more problems then he’d care to admit. I cannot think of anyone else who would have remained married to this man due to those problems. Unfortunately we live in a violent world and typically young men think war is “cool” until that is, they live it. War destroys not only the physical but the soul as well. This is where this post originates from … as I continue to live with a man who is very capable of hurting another when he is in one of his “states”. I thought a long time ago my love would help him. I no longer think that for I have come to realize the only one who can help this man is this man himself. Stay safe, Charlie. And come home in one piece. (((HUGS))) 💚💚💚
I couldn´t agree more, and yes mam, as Young.. or not so Young, point being if I can translate that point, yes, we love at that point in life the adrenaline and see if all the work you put on in training willl matter at the end of the day, so being married with a man that is a veteran you know, I also think that what you said….. ¨I no longer think that for I have come to reazie the only one who can help this man is this man himself¨ You talking to me? love ya
Charlie, thank you for “hearing” me. It sounds to me as if you already know you are the only one who can address your problems. THAT, dear friend, is the first step, the BIGGEST step IMO. Yes I do know what I am talking about being with who I am. The hells I have personally witnessed …. no man or woman would be so tormented. You’re in my Heart and Prayers. (((HUGS)))!
Hi Amy I’m so glad I’m catching-up with your blog after long. Yes as a Army veteran myself I agree wholeheartedly that “All war must cease for this is not our natural state of being”.
Regards and take care 🍀

Yes it must but I just don’t see it happening any time soon. Freedom hasn’t exacted its total cost yet. Some of the bill got paid earlier today.
If you care to, pass it along.
