Next Time You Want To Complain Or Whine About Grand Rapids Heatwave…

Remember this...

This little moment of reflection will put things in perspective for you.  ps, Thanks to my Facebook friend Vince Isenhoff for posting it.
I was going to complain about how HOT it is...
then I realized:
1. It isn't 109 degrees;
2. I'm not 5,700 miles from home;
3. I'm not dressed in a full BDU uniform and helmet and carrying 70+ lbs;
4. There is very little chance that anyone will shoot at me or that I might drive over a bomb in the road today!
** Thanks to all who serve ** Amen
