As my brain melts and becomes one with reality, the affair of this journey of life becomes familiar with you and me.

Thank You My Heroes
I have received this letter and many similar like it and I feel that I do not deserve the niceties these people and others have shared with me and my Marines. The majority of the boxes contents, expect for a book and a couple of Starburst, will be going to my Marines and several other Marines that are deployed farther out from me.
I can't help but feel choked up when I read a letter like this one from Eve. I have never thought of myself as a hero and probably never will. I have always thought that everyday people with their acts of kindness are the heroes.
Thank you.
All of us, thank you for taking the time and effort to send a piece of your home to our "home" here.
