Just got back...

Sun Apr 12, 2009, 1:26 PM
Just returned from two weeks in the field. Nothing like sleeping in the rain, and eating nothing but bean stew and MRE's to make you appreciate what you have. It was interesting, and educational. It showed me how strong I really am, which was both empowering and humbling. I tend to turn misery into humor, and as such can push myself to the extreme and still crack a joke. To those who understand my intention I am inspirational, but to those who do not and cannot appreciate the physical and mental riggers of training, I tend to appear... well, insane. I suppose I am a little crazy for doing the things that I do, but I also feel that those individuals who avoid struggle, who seek out safety and comfort, who say that they couldn't do those things a soldier must, I feel a sense of pity for them. None of them will ever know what it is like to rise before the morning sun and stand waiting with a hundred or so pounds of gear on your back, for a truck to whisk you away to some unknown location, to do some unknown task, in the darkness of night, for the safety and well being of others. I'm no hero, and I don't think that I am better than anyone, but I do know what I am capable of, and that, in itself, is a significant thing.

  • Mood: Euphoric
  • Listening to: My son doing all of those childish things
  • Reading: Zorro (In Espanol)
  • Watching: History unfold before my eyes
  • Drinking: Life

Hello there.
We haven't talked in a while. So I thought I'd message to see how you are and such. How's life? And so on and so forth. :)

Thanks for saying hello, it has been a while. I have been away on training, in fact I just got back last night from a four day exercise. It has been crazy, I haven't had a lot of time to do much of anything much less write my friends here on DA. I hope you have been well, how is the turbulent life of a teenager going? Anything new, once I get a chance I check out your page, I want to finish reading that story of the girl in the future who was different. Well I'll catch you later.

How can we believe in anything, when we know nothing?

Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.
