If you're not in love with a soldier, you can't truly understand how to make every moment count because you never know when that phone call may come again.

I have promised to be here for him upon his return no matter how long he is away. They may say I am insane for making such a commitment, but I hold onto our promises and have faith that he will come home safe. I know well that my love for him fuels him in the worst of times.

What I have with him is worth it. It is worth every lonely night, every tear I cry from missing him and the pain I feel from not having him close. It is worth it because he is my one and only. When I picture myself years from now, I see only him. No matter how painful distance can be, not having him in my life would be so much worst!


If you think being a soldier is tough, try loving one.

If you think soldiers are strong, you should look at their girls.
