On the weekend 3 Paras died in Afghanistan
After a suicide bomb attack.
The total of British troops killed over there
Reached 100 because of this.
I'm not British but ...
I do appreciate what the British do for us Romanians and for everyone
world wide when they send these guys off to war !! Without them we
would all live lives where we constantly look over our shoulders, fearful
of being blown up by some mad terrorist.
All the guys who go there have family, friends and people they love and
yet they put their lives on the line so we can enjoy the lives we do - with
our family, with our friends and with those we love.
I posted this to remind you all of the price these 100 dead soldiers have
paid so you can live the way you do ... Spare them a thought once in a
while, maybe when you're out enjoying a drink with your friends, or sat
round the table with your family for a meal or when you are cuddling up
with your girlfriend or boyfriend.
They live out there with the constant threat of being killed ...
For these 100 that threat became reality.
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay...
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord
