Thinking of Those Who Served…
The definition for the word veteran is a person who has had a protracted experience in a particular field or career, and someone who has served in the military.
Many veterans can testify that they fit the bill for both with their extensive time invested and devoted to their country for the safety and benefit of others, most of whom they will never meet.

It requires incredible discipline and stamina, with no promise of being shielded from harm’s way.
Veterans leave their comfortable homes and loved-ones behind, and in a very real sense, start all over in the lowest bracket of stature slowly and arduously striving forth to earn a specific position, future advancements, and the respect of their superiors and fellow soldiers.
It is a steep chain of command.
Joining these laudable and reputable ranks requires determination and perseverance to achieve and surpass exhausting protocols and rigorous routines that can devour the body, mind, and spirit, not to mention the devastating and overwhelmingly intense actions on the battlefield and their dire consequences.
Those who actively fought on the frontlines can attest to adverse conditions that lead to altered perspectives as shooting and injuring other human beings is tough even when they are projected as evil or wrong.
It takes a great deal to overcome our instinctual intrinsic essence as civil and social beings.
These innately peaceful yearnings must be painstakingly subdued and deconstructed for war and bloodshed to occur.
As children of God, this deliberate divergence is difficult to digest.
Earth is an interesting place.
From a broader view, it boasts gorgeous scenic views, landscapes, vegetation, and animal life that flow seamlessly and exist harmoniously in unison.
When we key into the optics for further analysis, we see disparagement, distortion, and disruption among mankind.
It can seem hopeless, but remember, it’s always darkest before the dawn, and the light that emerges will penetrate the stubborn darkness with a purging rapture that decommissions further atrocities.
The eleventh day of the eleventh month commemorates Veteran’s Day – 11/11.
It is not by capricious venture that this day was depicted for reverence, sacrifice, and valor.
The number eleven has universal meaning as a master number with a high frequency that heralds esoteric value and enlightenment, and this double dose is reserved for the brave, the self-sacrificing, and the fallen.
God bless all our wonderful Veterans. May the peace of the Lord be yours on Veteran’s Day and always. Thank you!
