As I watch his reaction too his sons suicide, I cannot help but think of the reaction of those that found him. Or the Marine who took his life in his car, the Marine who took his life in his front room, the Marine who took his life in his barracks after an ied blast, the Marine who took his life in the Porto shitter, the marine who shot himself in front of his mom, the Marine who attempted suicide. This is real, this is an epidemic22 vets a day, so many more civilians. its not because they are weak or selfish, you cannot criticize someone who is down so low. Sorry your life is so perfect and you have all the answers, sorry you havent fallen so far where the only escape is is becoming a ghost. I know what its like I have been there and I am where I am not because life became easy so one cared enough too tell me there is more to life than sadness and depression. I cannot fathom the feelings of family members who deal with this, dont make fun of someone, dont criticize anyone, dont have all the answers, and dont bash, simply shut up and listen. The silent cry is the one that is the loudest too the lost soul however too NORMAL people its the last one we hear. Devil dogs, soldiers, sea men, and air men we are not so strong too do it on our own. Semper. I fall short and am not perfect I feel responsible for so many thing wrong in my past and at one point drinking myself too death seemed too make sense why deal with heart ache, hurting my family, getting myself out of addiction, sleeping in the street was my choice over life. It gets better. It gets much better. Hang on dont give up your almost there, breath just breath, youll make it to tomorrow. Semper
