I support MY troops.
One of my downstairs neighbors, who was "taken out" about a month back... yeah... she's still not back. I saw them put her into the ambulance... and you know what? I SALUTED her. I FUCKING SALUTED HER!
I knew that she was down for real.
No nickname for her. None at all. On this blog, she was just the "black woman" who lived downstairs, whom I RESPECTED for being such in this country and lasting for as long as she did... yes... and living to tell the tale... for living to REPRESENT.
It's been about a month now.
I don't think that she'll be coming back.
She's in a "home" now.
"A home."
Not HER home!!!
M'am...
take all that horrible SHIT with you and throw it the hell away... right up that Devil's ASS!!!... if you can. What you went through? NO ONE SHOULD.
I SALUTE YOU. YOU are a TRUE "soldier".
YOU put the "brave" in "the home of the brave"... NOT ME... YOU.
...and I thank you... from the core of my being.

For days now I've been reading this, over and over in my head, and I can't stop.
It's left me speechless, but I did want to tell you that this is very profound...
