An Email I Got

Tuesday, June 19, 2007


I received this in my email from my niece and it touched me so much, I had to share. Every single one of us should thank God for our soldiers and pray for their safe return.


Oo-Rah!
_______________________

You stay up for 16 hours.

He stays up for days on end.
_________________________

You take a warm shower to help you wake up.

He goes days or weeks without running water.
__________________________
You complain of a "headache", and call in sick.

He gets shot at as others are hit, and keeps moving forward. __________________________
You put on your anti war/don't support the troops shirt, and go meet up with your friends.

He still fights for your right to wear that shirt.
__________________________
You make sure your cell phone is in your pocket.

He clutches the cross hanging on his chain next to his dog tags. __________________________
You talk trash about your "buddies" that aren't with you.

He knows he may not see some of his buddies again.
__________________________
You walk down the beach, staring at all the pretty girls.

He patrols the streets, searching for insurgents and terrorists. _________________________
You complain about how hot it is.

He wears his heavy gear, not daring to take off his helmet to wipe his brow.

__________________________
You go out to lunch, and complain because the restaurant got your order wrong.

He doesn't get to eat today.
__________________________
Your maid makes your bed and washes your clothes.

He wears the same things for weeks, but makes sure his weapons are clean.

__________________________
You go to the mall and get your hair redone.

He doesn't have time to brush his teeth today.
__________________________
You're angry because your class ran 5 minutes over.

He's told he will be held over an extra 2 months.
__________________________
You call your girlfriend and set a date for tonight.

He waits for the mail to see if there is a letter from home.
__________________________

You hug and kiss your girlfriend, like you do everyday.

He holds his letter close and smells his love's perfume.
__________________________
You roll your eyes as a baby cries.

He gets a letter with pictures of his new child, and wonders if they'll ever meet

__________________________
You criticize your government, and say that war never solves anything.

He sees the innocent tortured and killed by their own people and remembers why he is fighting.
________ __________________
You hear the jokes about the war, and make fun of men like him.

He hears the gunfire, bombs and screams of the wounded. __________________________
You see only what the media wants you to see.

He sees the broken bodies lying around him.
__________________________
You are asked to go to the store by your parents. You don't.

He does exactly what he is told.
__________________________
You stay at home and watch TV.

He takes whatever time he is given to call, write home, sleep, and eat.

__________________________
You crawl into your soft bed, with down pillows, and get comfortable.

He tries to sleep but gets woken by mortars and helicopters all night long.
