my cousin jared is getting shipped off to Kuwait
i dont want to see him die like so many other soldiers have before
i sat at home tonite while he and my brother went to the movies
i went in my room and cried for him
he shows no fear of going there i show the world my fear of it
it seems to me like he thinks its a joke
when i know it is so serious he could get shot
get held hostage get a number of things
and the thing is he is in the 1st calvary divison
which means he will be front line
preety much a moving target

i fear for him because he has no fear of it
he and i are really close and it makes me sad to think of him getting shipped off
also my mom and step-dad are under threat of being sent to Saudi Arabia
if all three of them get sent i dont know what i will do
they all mean so much to me and i know if they get sent
there is no way to stop it which scares me even more
what happens if they die
what happens to my little sister devin
she grows up mommy and daddy less
i only fear for what they dont fear

i know if they get sent i will cry like i am now sept 10 times worse
i more than likly will drop out of school
and die i will end up killin myself i couldnt live without them
they mean to much

I understand your pain well not totally because i don thave family members going to war but once i had a dream and in my dream my dad had to leave for the army and in my dream i was scared that he would be lost in the war and i woke up crying with literal tears in my eyes because i was so scared for my dad. God is in control and I'm sure he wont take your mother and father away and if something like that happens remember that its not gods fault because i use to blame god for something tha happened to a family member when i just lately realized that there is a devil as well as a god and the bad things come from the devil but than i thought well how could god (let) those things happen than i thought well were not robots thats why people have a choice to believe in god or not to believe in him when something comes up people whjo never gave a first thought about god say well why did he let this happen well he didnt he cant make every mans mind think good and pleasant and happy and peaceful anyway i must sound like some kind of preacher but ive just been sorting thoughts about god and stuff im sorry that this was sooo long god bless you.....
