Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
Personal advice: Don't ever cry in front of the cheater and pretend to be really cool-headed and cold about the cheating. If you break things & shout, that is exactly what a cheater thinks your reaction will be. But if you keep your calm and talk about things normally, they lose their minds. Then they start self-guessing themselves.
My ex broke my heart when I caught him cheating, with a random girl on his bday. I caught them having sex in his house. I actually planned a full surprise, got his friends involved, and got cake and stuffs. And then we knocked on the door to see him wearing his clothes loosely and heels on the floor that ovio was not mine.
He lost his mind and seemed panicked, I just knew! I went into the bedroom and saw a girl. I took 2 mins to calm down, invited her also, and asked him to cut the cake. One should have seen his face and all his friend's face. LOL.
The moment he cut the cake, I told him that this was our breakup celebration. In short, he cried and begged, and I didn't look back. He lost his mind and stalked me like crazy for some months. Had my dad and brother involved, who threatened him to finally have him give up.
3 years have gone waste.
Went back home and cried. But I didn't want him to see the satisfaction of seeing me hurt.
