A dear old friend (who is not old) pointed out a really great thing to me. She said it so kindly that in fact, I almost missed it. Understanding and compassion comes in all shapes and from many sources. I should not be jaded because there are those who do not understand but think that they do.
So... this is for you.
I have been jaded in the past because there are people in my life who said they would stand by me and have failed. But, as my mother has always said do not expect an apology from someone who isnt sorry. Those who have done me wrong are not sorry and so I must not hold their transgressions against those who are.
I need to be thankful. Thankful I am.
I have a group of new friends who have stood by me through thick and thin, a mother that is my strength, and old friends that have been with me through every step of this military life journey.
I hope that these friends know just how much I appreciate them. Without them I can not be me.
I love you...
