"This is the war thats never won. This is the soldier and his call. This is the mother waiting by the fire, praying for her son. Pictures of you, pictures of me, remind us all of what we used to be."~(Song) Pictures of You by The Last Goodnight. Turn your volume on its playing on my blog!
This is the most amazing video on Youtube. It is about our troops in Iraq and it almost made me cry. This is the video we saw in class today.Just click on the link, then on the video. Please watch the whole thing it is amazing.
No matter how you look at it, nobody ever wins a war. I know this is a much more sad topic than what i normally type about, but its true. Today in class they were taking donations for the soilders and our teacher played a video on the overhead about whats going on and it had a bunch of pictures from the war in Iraq and everything. So it got me thinking, when did somebody really "win" a war? I mean lets say nobody gets hurt at all, but they still had to leave their family. Lets say they didnt have a family, the soilder still has to live with how he saw other people live. Even though in the end some side always comes up with victory, is it worth the cost? It is amazing how people risk their lives difending freedom. They arent the heros you see in movies with powers and always ends up happily ever after. It is so diffrent, they dont have any powers, they dont have a bunch of people admiring them and giving them cool superman names, and they dont always get a happily ever after either. Yet, there they are doing it with dignity and pride, which they have EVERY right to do too! God bless you soilders of America and come home safe!
