Let's say some prayers and send calming love to the soldiers who are feeling effects of PTSD this season.
My soldier friend has only been back from Afghanistan for about 6 months. My heart goes out to him and his fellow soldiers when he told me today that these last few days he has to close his eyes and concentrate saying to himself "it is only fireworks...it is only fireworks"
I guess people just don't realize how upsetting the fireworks could be to a soldier just home from war. He said that the fireworks sound exactly like war!

GOD BLESS AMERICA. Our FREEDOM is not free.
The soldier in my family is often saying that they could not do what they do without the support of their families and the sacrifices the families make.
Linda: Please thank you friend for me for all he has done for our country. God Bless him. I will pray for him. Marly
"It's only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth- and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up- that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had." Elisabeth Kurler-Ross
I will be praying for all the soldiers suffering from PTSD. As if war isn't bad enough, they come home and still carry the war experience with them. Lots of healing thoughts going out tonight to all soldiers protecting our country... Cindy
fireworks and soldiers!
