Soldier Comes Home



When a soldier comes home, he finds it hard....

..to listen to his son whine about being bored.

....to keep a straight face when people complain about potholes.


http://hikinghq.net/images/soldier/wash.bmp
to be tolerant of people who complain about the hassle of getting ready for work.


http://hikinghq.net/images/soldier/sleep.bmp
...to be understanding when a co-worker complains about a bad night's sleep.

..to be silent when people pray to God for a new car.

...to control his panic when his wife tells him he needs to drive slower.

..to be compassionate when a businessman expresses a fear of flying.

....to keep from laughing when anxious parents say they're afraid to

send their kids off to summer camp.

....to keep from ridiculing someone who complains about hot weather.

....to remain calm when his daughter complains about having to walk the dog.

.....to just walk away when someone says they only get two weeks of vacation a year.

The only thing harder than being a Soldier...
