I always have faith that everything will make sense, and we will move into a better era. Sometimes it's challenging to maintain that faith, but it's always there.

Going to have to have to push back here. Much rather have a strong locus of control. Chart your own path and aggressively fight for it. Don’t let the Army machine pre-determine your life outcomes.

Faith isn't going to make the difference. Personal responsibility will.

Faith should be the last thing we lose. Especially when in the military, which can be such a cruel and grueling industry. I wish you the best, friend!

Have you been taking good care of yourself lately? I find it easier for me to keep my hopes up and feeling good about myself if I am taking care of my physical and mental health. I hope you do the same!

We need more people like you!

I wish I had the same faith, people are performing more and more acts that make me lose hope in a better era.
