Imagine your little kid standing on the edge of a cliff and is about to jump. And there you are looking at him from below, asking him to stop but he won’t listen. You are helpless and fearful. Your heart is beating fast, you are breathing heavily before he jumps.
Now imagine you come to know that your kid/father/mother/husband is going to jump off an airplane without a parachute. And you can’t do anything to stop him. All you can do is watch them as they jump.
Feel the fear for that one moment?
That’s what a soldier’s family goes through each day, each minute. That’s the fear they live with each day of their lives. However, you will never know the dear unless you become a part of it!
