Day 16: Someone Who's Not in Your State or Country

Dear Soldier,
I don't know you, but I pray for you. I appreciate you and that you are fighting for my freedom. I may not agree with the people who sent you to fight, but I will back you 100%.
I believe in you. I hope for you. I pray for your safe return and that you will heal from the atrocities you've witnessed and the experiences you've had.
I hope that when you return you are able to adjust back to this world we call normal. I hope that some day you will feel "normal" again.  I hope that your loved ones are doing well while you are gone and also stand behind you. They are your lifeline.
I have no idea what you have gone through, dear Soldier, and I know that you had no idea what you were getting into. I know that I will not have to know these things personally because you stand between. You stand firm. Thank you for taking a stand.
Know that you are in my prayers. Know that I love and appreciate you.
May God bless you, dear Soldier, and give you peace.
Sharon
