You're Never Alone

There are nights when all you will be able to do is stay up thinking about him, wondering what he is doing, if he is thinking about you and if he is happy where he is.  There are nights that all you can do is hold the stuffed animal he gave you months ago and cry.  There are nights where you lose hours of sleep even though you know you have such a long "to do" list for tomorrow.  There are nights that all you can do is miss and love your man.  

These nights are common for every military s/o.  Whether your man is on duty, in training, in a weekend conference, on deployment, or wherever he is other than in the bed next to you, know you are never alone.  There is not a military s/o out there that will say they never had one of these nights before.  There is someone out there right now with your same feelings.  I can promise you he thinks about you every night before he goes to sleep.  He loves you every second of every day.  He carries you in his heart every wherever he goes.  He is a man, so his emotions do not show as much as ours do, but that does not mean he cares any less or loves any less than you do.  

While you are lying in bed feeling alone, don't let your mind and heart doubt.  Crying is okay, wondering is okay, worrying is okay, but don't ever doubt.  Your man loves you and supports you here at home, while you love and support him wherever his duty has taken him!  

Our lives can be rocky and harder than we ever could have imagined at times, but the love between a man in the military and his girl at home is a love that cannot be put into words.

So as you lye in bed tonight and feel helpless and alone, let yourself cry.  Let yourself be angry. Let yourself miss him. And let yourself smile at how lucky you are to have someone so amazing, handsome and perfect to miss.  He is with you through all these emotions. You are never alone!
