No matter the charge
No matter what’s faced
Our men and women of the military stand ready
To do what we can’t
To rise and fall when they must
So that we awake free to live another day
If you conform your ideas derived from thought to your external physical reality, it’s fairly straightforward to reconcile a strong desire for non-violence and peace with the utmost appreciation and respect for the men and women of our military. If you untether your thoughts from the moment, you’ll mistaken what you imagine as what’s real and risk all.
A professional military is created deliberately by a civil society that pays the utmost respect to the rank and file in exchange for their highest obligation entrusted therein—the protection of our very lives and liberties.
For this, a professional military knows from where they come and for whom they fight, if fight they must.
We’re not a species free of violence. The most peaceful among us is self-centered, fragmented and therefore the very root cause & instrument of violence.
This is not to say we cannot chart a path of Peace; but it is to say that if you do not know yourself without the filter of convention, your path more often than not will be one of War. Culture is what you wear; it may be “who” you are; but it’s not what you are.
Don’t be distracted by noise and literal non-sense.
Remember the Fallen.
Respect, receive and honor the Veteran who makes it home.
Until we be peace incarnate, we are not.
