Strength

A friend emailed this to me and I started crying when I saw this picture.










As I reflect on this photograph, I see once again that not all the brave leave the 'home of the brave' to enter battle; some are required now to be the brave of the home.It is said a picture is worth a thousand words but it leaves me speechless and tears in my eyes.

I can't see it either.
The property source looks like you are direct linking it right from your yahoo email. Bad idea, so no wonder it wont show up.

I'm with Holly though... It's alright. I'm not wanting to be sad or cry.

Oh, that hurts. And how true. How brave do the one's who are left behind have to be.

Dude. I knew I didn't want to come back and see this.

It's so true, however. We often think of the heroes who leave home, but rarely consider the ones who stay home. :(

I don't know what's more sad... this picture, or the fact that it's repeated over and over again.
