For the soldier it mostly starts with trying to provide for the family. After that, it's about watching your brother's back; getting home alive. It helps us but it's not about us. We can be thankful that they have the courage to stay and keep their word. All of us have a hero and a coward inside of us. See yourself in every soldier and thank God for their choices.
The following posts will be excerpts from my 2009 Afghanistan journal. I spent 90 days there; not long really, but it changed me. Now I’m less about what I do and more about living with my eyes open.
