Thank you for having it here for me and many others to read.<br /><br />I am an Indian girl, not a military wife though. But in love with a military guy. He is in Indian Army. I'm so proud of him. After going through this, I realised what my man is going through. How lonely he feels even he is not deployed, but simply far from family and friends, facing it all by himself. Just wanna tell him, he is never alone. I'm always there for him.<br /><br />Reading this makes me love him more and more. How I wish him to have faith in my love and that I'm strong enough to deal with the kind of life I'll have if I get lucky enough to be a part of his life and that we both deserve each other and are perfect for each other. Just want him to have faith in ''US''. I'm dying every second of my life to get him back in my life. Staying away is way better than staying without the love of your life.<br /><br />Thanks and Regards,<br /><br />SulingeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484957168950195936.post-45386780299562358272013-05-11T06:11:23.870-05:002013-05-11T06:11:23.870-05:0034 years my father has served.. How many goodbyes ...34 years my father has served.. How many goodbyes said.. Too many.. Missed moments.. Countless.. Since 17 him and my mother have made this life work.. At 51 they still hold hands each moment they get.. And hold back tears with each goodbye.. Early 2013 he came home from Afghanistan.. A husband, father, grandfather, brother, son, cousin, friend, soldier, officer ... Unknown American hero.. This poems amazing as with military life & love comes military miserable moments.. Remember why & stay proud & if you accept the life you make it work.. Its harder than other relationship strains in ways we hear but even as a child with front row seat my whole life I'll never understand the strength in the spouse.. You guys are hero holding it down keepin it home, being married through the phone, countless nights spent alone.. When the assignments done and my dad comes back, the only person to make mom smile like that.. The pride inside to know that stand up man, Soldier all his life, but found a way to make it work, since 17, same career same wife.. This poems beautifully written touching things most dont think or know goes on to be hurt over, or stressed, or unforgiving.. Military marriage (as is civilian in different areas) is something most people cant do.. Distance, jealousy, assumptions and self pride.. All young spontanious marriages wether one or both be military should read this and decide can they live with never knowing somethings, step up when the others called to step out.. Very deep and touching.. This goes beyond the surface smiles and sorry, he'll be safe and home soon auto play responses from 'friends' As brave as they who serve as are all you spouses you fill the role while their gone on top of dealing with where sent.. You should all be just as proud of yourselves.. Im proud of who my parents are and thank you all for seving, home or away when duty calls, your spouse dont answer alone.. So a big thanks to the hometeam I appreciate you work and admire your strength.. Thank you for sharing these touching words with us.. Just beautiful..
