Some mornings you don't even need a face mask.

PTSD is a wound as real and painful as any physical one

Some are minor and bearable, but will leave scars.

Some are deep and always painful. They can make life difficult to bear.

Some destroy, sometimes slowly, but always deadly.

May your father know the peace denied him in this life.

That creature has no soul and I don't write this lightly.

He is incapable of understanding, empathy or compassion. He's a caricature of a human being who feeds his id with hate for real human beings.

I can not understand how any veteran or active duty member could be in the same room with him, let alone support him. Clue burner troops: He hates us. Every weary or horror filled day we did and experience things he could not bear for second, let alone months or years and deep in his rat filled subconscious he realizes this. He is weak, without substance, and in his envy and fear he lashes out.
