Why is it when my friends post things like military support things, and how everyone needs to do their part to support the military, and how different their lives are and blah blah blah, how hard it is for soldiers, I feel guilty.
I shouldn't feel guilty.
i support our soldiers, in fact, I support them in a way they will never know.
People talk about how the media lets you see what they want you to see, and how thats not what its really like.
Well duh, but no one takes into consideration, when they are talking about the war, and the soldiers who are hurt, or die, these are my friends, my ex's, and my life they are talking about.
they say support the military.
Some people ignore the war
It controled my past, its a constant in my present, and it controls my future.
In most peoples eyes I don't support the war, I don't wear the shirts, or carry the signs.
I jsut live the life
they say the life of a soldier is a hard job
but no one realizes that being the wife/life partner of a soldier is an even harder job
they know the dangers at least
we have to watch the media and know that what we see on TV isn't even half of the story

so yeah, ******** you people who try to make me feel guilty about not supporting the war
this is my rant
