Today I was reading The Pout Pout Fish In the Big Big Dark by Deborah Diesen to my kids. At then end of the book they've accomplished the task at hand by supporting and helping each other. It says,"The ocean is wide and the ocean is deep, but friends help friends, that's a promise we keep." Then finishes by saying they (the group of sea creatures) are bigger than the dark. As dumb as this may sound, it occurred to me that that is how we should be as a military family. We should work together to overcome our fears and support one another in our tasks. Together we can be bigger than the dark. We can support each other instead of drag each other down. We can battle the loneliness of the darkness. There are so many people in this world, but we can choose to help each other. No one knows what we go through as a military family except another member of the military.
Food for thought!
