What a moving picture. Thanks for sharing it.
"Well, you know how it feels if you begin hoping for something that you want desperately badly; you almost fight against the hope because it is too good to be true; you've been disappointed so often before. But it was no good trying to throttle this hope. It might - really, really, it just might be true. So many odd things had happened already." - from the magician's nephew

Thanks for remembering the soldiers and their families. The divorce rate amongst deployed soldiers is skyrocketing. One of my friend's husband has just left on his second year-long tour. She's doing fine and so is the marriage, but she looks beat.

An Iraqi medic consoling an American soldier just blows me away. It says so much, and all of it good.
