Topic: Christmas? | |
---|---|
Yes before we knew it tis the season is back. the problem is that while some send Yule time tide some (like myself) sit and wonder where they went wrong. What do i mean? I have no money for the Christmas that i wanted. I spent 15 months in Iraq and 3 years 17 weeks in the Army only to come home without anything but a dress uniform. Uncle Sams forgotten child. I am not looking for handouts or sympathy just to let the American People know that us Soldiers are just number in the ranks of Uncle Sam. Many know this and accept it but too many are just content on letting it go. I spent last Christmas as well as my 23rd birthday in Iraq wondering if my family was a good Christmas and if I was ever going to see them again, but here i am typing this on the eve Christmas depressed and wondering as i said before where i went wrong. Tomarrow you'll hear the sound of ripping wrapping paper and gleeful sound of childeren and adult laughing about the things they got yet days and days after people taking what they like back ungreatful as the rest forgetting those who have nothing. But i have to admit im happy to be home finally and i will never forget those who paid the altimate price on forign soil.

Not the only one this year with no money for Christmas. This year and last.
I have to work friday, but I'm hoping to hit the stores in the evening to find some after holiday sales to do MY Christmas shopping after christmas. My friends are getting a late one. |
