Through the journey of life there will be days you never want to relive and moments you never want to happen again, but those always seem to be forgotten after some time has passed. Those days and memories always seem to be less dominant in your mind than the good memories and moments.
Through distance and deployment there will definitely be those days you never want to relive, want to completely forget, and you wish never happened. They are truly inevitable. I want each and every one of you to do/have something every day you enjoy. Do not go to sleep thinking, "today was a waste of a day." Just because you broke down, missed your man more than normal, cried yourself to sleep, or didn't want to get out of bed in the morning does not mean your whole day was bad. Do not let deployment and distance ruin days, months or years of your life. Live everyday for yourself if your man is not here. Still show him you love him, but show him you can do this on your own. Show him you are strong and will not let deployment or distance take over. Break down, but get back up and smile. Miss your man, but realize you are so lucky to have someone so amazing to miss. Cry yourself to sleep, and wake up the next morning telling yourself "today is going to be a great day." Get out of bed and make yourself pretty because you are going to make today a good day. Do not let deployment make a bad day into a bad month and then a bad year. Let deployment be time for you to SHINE and time for you to live and do things you cannot do while your man is home. Do not let deployment or distance defeat you. Instead, kick deployment and distance's ass, and show it who's boss!
