For Rhonda and for all of my brothers and all your brothers, too. you can't begin to imagine, what many of them went thru. Don't, have a need, to understand, but a heart to encourage and forgive. Art PS A few have asked if they could forward this or use it in some manner. By all means, whatever you wish.
P.T.S.D. a bunch of letters so what? everything seems to have letters to describe itself you went to war so did a lot of others they don't carry the baggage you won't let go of
How do I let go of something I gave to the Lord ????
How can I ever explain ????
There's no conscious thought !!!!
It's all loss nowhere to find gain !!!!
How do I not sleep not hear triggers ?? stop what I never start !!!!
Didn't I tell you ask you beg you to ignore to forgive ????
It's only words the Lord took the rest erased it from my soul from my brain !!!!
He's done so much put broke things back healed wounds that caused such pain !!!!
His spirit takes me to my knees I pray you just let it pass !!!!
It's just reaction so short lived don't give it any weight !!!!
He's taking more and more of it away each and every day !!!!
Please stand by me please always see the other 98 percent !!!!
In all things show me the error of my ways I promise to repent !!!!
The eyes of those we couldn't save the cries of horrors seen felt tasted smelt !!!!
Bullets come from behind a line of the old women kids !!!!
They killed us with our morals or we lived to wish they did. !!!!
Excuses are a dime a dozen I won't even offer one !!!!
just know and be grateful try to understand and forgive !!!!
these few remaining reactions are the aftermath of how we managed to live !!!!!!!
Art ~ what a way to answer a prayer! I am truly honored, dear Comrade... I will download your gracious offering, and send it to him...I believe The LORD will use your gift, to touch places
no other can seem to reach. He IS an honorable man - when he returned from 'Nam, he was spat upon, just like our LORD...It was caustic to my heart! The layout you created is extraordinary...we go to visit The Wall regularly, too. It WILL bless him, Art...it has blessed me. You are a faithful Brother, and I am so sorry for what you - and all others - have suufered through. Thank GOD, for His Son ...He's a Healing Jesus.
my love & prayers & gratitude ~ Rhonda

Art, a very intense personal presentation that stirs the senses and allows your readers to grasp some idea of the pain and effect that war had on so many.A very powerful offering and I'm so thankful you know the one who gives the only peace that can be had!Blessings to you!I admire, honor, and respect you!
this is very powerful. I'm impressed not only by the passion and pain in the content, but also by the form. I like how you broke the sentences up. As I read it, I pictured a man sitting across from me speaking the words, his voice cracking, taking deep breaths...All around, this is powerful. But I've already said that.
Married ten years, and more in love than ever, Robert and Marcie have everything to live for. But a terrible secret is breaking Robert's heart: he knows that Marcie is about to die...
Just as life during the pandemic was color-coded with different hues representing different levels of danger, life in its aftermath has become shaded in similar ways. As a self-styled “Seeker of Beauty with Beauty,” (borrowing from a quote by W.E.B.
