Final moments before Soldier Daddy flew back to The Sand. It sucked. We cried. I ate A LOT of Ben and Jerry's for 48 hours following.

Tribute to my Childhood
Boy meets girl. Girl marries boy. Boy joins the Army. Girl meets Army life. Boy and girl make the most of this tough life. After all, it's ours...
Persian proverb:
Those who love earnestly are doomed, but those that love with irony shall find contentment.
Those who love earnestly are doomed, but those that love with irony shall find contentment.
We cannot escape the influence our lives have on the lives of others.

Tribute to my Childhood
Goethe Says:
"Take care of your body with steadfast fidelity. The soul must see through these eyes alone, and if they are dim, the whole world is clouded."
Roger Bannister Says:
The man who can drive himself further once the effort gets painful is the man who will win.
All endeavor calls for the ability to tramp the last mile, shape the last plan, endure the last hours toil. The fight to the finish spirit is the one characteristic we must posses if we are to face the future as finishers.
