The Welcome

Warriors come home. Warriors always come home.

I don't know who is saying it. It is a voice offscreen. But it is powerful. As is the post this morning at Maureen's, Writing without Paper.

I am off to a 7am meeting. My post I was going to put up will appear tomorrow as I believe Maureen's post is too important to be missed.

You can read and watch here.

She's posted about The Welcome. A documentary on war vets finding a way home, finding a way to overcome PTSD and, as one man says, 'who I was before I went to Iraq.'

There's also a second video of a former Iraq soldier reading her poem, Girl, though I think the way she says it, it may be, 'gurrrrl'.

Please -- give yourself the gift of time to read and watch these powerful stories.

Namaste.
