The war doesn't truly end for some. Excellent photo choice and well said, Wally.

I loved reading this, wallyroo.
Some wounds never heal, some hurt every single day.
And all too often, that's when everyone walks away.
Sometimes all it takes is a hand to hold through the pain.
Someone to stay.
Someone to lend their strength on bad days.
And most importantly, someone that sees the bad days, but never forgets the heart of the person behind the pain.
I hope we all have someone who understands these things.
This visual and message is just beautiful ❤
And Happy Veteran's Day!

Thank you very much Scribbles.
I liked what you said about that it takes a hand to hold through the pain. Words sometimes won't help, but a simple gesture like that can mean the world.

Dear Honoria,
Thank you for your kind comment and for adding to your RL.
The image really tugged at me, especially because it was Veteran's day.
