When a soldier comes home
I got this as an email and had to share it with all of you. (Thanks, W”B”S.)
WHEN A SOLDIER COMES HOME:
When a soldier comes home, he finds it hard….
…to listen to his son whine about being bored:
…to keep a straight face when people complain about potholes:
…To be tolerant of people who complain about the hassle of getting ready for work:
…to be understanding when a co-worker complains about a bad night’s sleep:
…to be silent when people pray to God for a new car:
…to control his panic when his wife tells him he needs to drive slower:
…to be compassionate when a businessman expresses a fear of flying:
…to keep from laughing when anxious parents say they’re afraid to send their kids off to summer camp:
…to keep from ridiculing someone who complains about hot weather:
…to control his frustration when a colleague gripes about his coffee being cold:
…to remain calm when his daughter complains about having to walk the dog:
…to be civil to people who complain about their jobs:
…to just walk away when someone says they only get two weeks of vacation a year:
…to be forgiving when someone says how hard it is to have a new baby in the house:
The only thing harder than being a Soldier…
Is loving one:
