Reminded Memories

Was watching the news last night, a story about a TV station giving a deserving Vet and his family a Xmas surprise. They gave them first $1000 in an earlier gifting. Then, calling them back for an "interview", giving them $6000 more to brighten their holidays. Not finished, a car dealership gave them a new van, as they had lost the use of their old broken car, all tax free.
It reminded me of my return, my memories. No one met me when I returned, was on my own, no hero's welcome because I was a "shadow warrior" from dark times. The only "gift" I received was a visit from my former employer, upset and worried that their "secrets" would be exposed, sending unpleasant, threatening people to "invite" me back to the "agency" or else. Forced to protect myself, I did what was necessary. Then, lived a life of always looking over my shoulder, but never afraid.
No metals, no gifts, no welcoming homecoming......just an empty holiday. No home to go to, abandoned n in foreclosure, empty of life.
I put all that behind me, lifted myself up, put my head into work to forget, forgive my misdeeds, never asking for handouts, nor wanting help, moving on with my life.
I'm uplifted by the change in America's giving nature these days, hoping more Vets get the support I never received. I was forgotten, may that never happen to the service vets again!
Romance her heart, tease her body, enjoy the company shared in bed n out! Treasure every moment spent together, in good times n bad!

 Your service was above and beyond what many had to do. My first husband was a draftee during Viet Nam. He could never discuss what he did and it finally drove him crazy- One day he walked out the door and I never saw him again. I feel for all of the ignored and poorly treated service people. It was and continues to be so shameful. Please all of you for being there for us
