Excerpts from post….

I see friends sorrow deepen every year as we relive the attacks that day and they miss the ones they lost. I saw the dedication and the anger in those that joined myself in the following “counter attacks” in Iraq & Afghanistan in the following years. In them as well, I saw the sorrow again in those family members & children when warrior’s lives were ended as they gave their all in a foreign country.”


“For those of you reading this that have lost a loved one that day or have lost a loved one in the sequential counter attacks against the ones who did this, this country is behind you. Currently steely eyed warriors of all branches and many countries (not just the US) are getting ready, already there or preparing to be replaced as they continue to finish the mission that we started. They are doing great things in the Counter Insurgency fight.”

All who've lost a loved one - family member - brother - sister or a service buddy all grieve and come away with mixed emotions. Some run deeper than others. It takes away something within us - of which words don't often say exactly what takes place within each of us who at one time or another have had to deal with this element of loss. Sorrow is one and why is the other. For sure we all grieve in one manner or another. The pain is severe and reflects some part of our soul that is feeling this loss and pain. The brain doesn't know of to express the loss - the heart doesn't have words - its comes in a quite moment when your eyes begin to water and your breathing slows and you sye and cry and don't know why you can't keep it together and it pains you so deeply that other's can't console you. Difficult to say the least.
