Frozen within time;

One year ago, I was worrying about how life in army is going to turn out.

One year later, I am worrying about how this journey is going to turn out.

Of course I wasn't as lost as I was one year before, but you know, the sense of impending doom is still  tough to deal with. Coming on to the anniversary of becoming a one-year soldier, both the army and navy changed me in many considerations. The most important part that has changed, is the appreciation of people around me. Being taken away from your loved ones makes you miss them, so much more than you think you would. They mean the entire world to me now. 

Happy one-year soldier anniversary, Travis. Keep growing, keep going.

Keep it safe till then;

I promise I'll come back to claim it.
