Life in general

As I sit here tonight while my husband is working nights I sit and think a lot. I know we as military spouses and significant others are expected to go with the flow and smile but sometimes it is so hard. When you hear about another group leaving their family or you hear another on who has lost their life, no matter what branch of service, we all hurt. I see people daily with "that" look and you just sort of know.

I love our life, l love the fact that my husband is happy doing what he does and he seems so content and that makes me happy and at the same time sad because I know what is coming down the road. I also know that with our faith that my husband and I will get thru this together. We made a commitment to one another 5 years ago and we stand by those commitments no matter what. I really think there are some in the military that look at seperations as a time to let go, it isn't.

I have met the most wonderful group of women and men thru the internet. Each of us know what we are going thru at some point or another and we stand by each other. While we haven't met most of these people, we still are sad for them, happy for them, cry with them and Pray with them. While some think we have it made, they have no idea of what we go thru each and everyday and I'm sad for them but not for me.
