I'm not a fan of war. I never have been and I hope like hell I never will be.
In the last year I have met a few wonderful people that have served in different branches of the military, and through them I have learned a bit more than I knew previously about what it means to be a veteran.
I am thankful these individuals are here and that they are in my life. I'm thankful for what they have done. I
hate knowing that they went through some of the things they did. And I'm
so sorry they lost people there. People they knew. People that were
fighting for something important (which I really didn't understand until recently)
For Memorial day we enjoy our long
weekend, we laugh and play, and most of us really don't think about what
the holiday truly is. But I played hard on that day and it's because of these people I
never knew.
Thank you, still with us still or not. Thank you to those I know, those I never will know, and those I that didn't get to come back home to the ones that love them.
Bluish Nighs will be back up and running shortly.
The original intent was for the blog to be about good times and bad times (though it seemed to focus a lot on barefooting), and I intend to take it back to the original concept.
A post on the bad times and mental health coming soon.
