My Interests

I'd like to meet:

***********************************************************" ...Furthermore, even if I were to arrive at some political epiphany for or against the war, it wouldn’t change my family’s reality. What good would it do me to expend energy protesting the war when I need all the energy I can muster to raise my kids and take care of myself while my husband is deployed? How much harder would it be to support my husband and his commitment if I was constantly railing against it? My ballot box, if you will, was at the end of the alter the day I married a military service member. When I became Mrs. Smiley I theoretically “signed the permission slip” allowing my husband to leave at the President’s command, despite all else, even if I’m about to have a baby, I’m sick with the flu, or I don’t agree with the mission. And in that moment, when I became a military spouse, I simultaneously developed a compartmentalized mind which allows me to support the troops regardless of the politics." ~Sarah SmileyFor more reading and books she has published go to www.sarahsmiley.com !
