Exit

Its feel so cold here. I'm so close to leaving this place to visit with my family for 2 weeks. Yes its that time this Saturday I should be boarding a flight. I go to another military base which I wait for a flight to a civilian airport. Once I arrive at this civilian airport I should be staring my wife in the eyes in less than 48 hours. The thought of it excites me like the thought of doing something for the first time. This place has really made me appreciate what I have in my life. I'm tired of hearing of Marines lose their lives amongst other things. I'm tired of seeing our country poor everything we have into this country… our sweat…our blood…. And the millions and billions of dollars. I hope in the end we get it right but my gut is it wont be right in our eyes because this region of the world will never fully accept the idea of what we represent because we are that country in the west that is everything they don't like. I hope I'm wrong but only time will tell.
