Page 9 - A Soldiers Exposition
P. 9

From about the age of six, I inherently knew I had a soul and that angels exist.  Say what you want, think
               about what you want and feel what you want.  It is of your choosing.

               I know I felt my soul, I lost my soul, and I salvaged my soul.  I believe I have seen and communicated with
               angels.  A review of my life experiences will dictate that there is no other explanation of the events.
               Therefore, I believe I am living proof of angels.

               Throughout this editorial, you will read quotes from War and the Soul, written by Edward Tick, Ph.D.
               Doctor Tick re-enforces many of my thoughts and opinions.

               If you are a veteran, I especially encourage you to read War and the Soul, and Sacred Mountain by
               Edward Tick, Ph.D.

               Although not quoted, I also recommend Heaven Is for Real by Todd Burpo and
               90 Minutes In Heaven by Don Piper.  These two books add to my confidence that angels and heaven are
               real.

                                      Post-Traumatic Stress can be an all-controlling disorder.


                                        I prefer to think of it as Post-Traumatic Stress Injury.

                               “Lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen…”  Deuteronomy 4:9

                                                  Those words ring true for me.

                                     I do not consider it a disorder.  I was injured – I am injured.

               So, what exactly is A Soldier’s Exposition?

               Simple answer:  An account, an editorial, a story – my story.

               I am willing to bet that at least some of you thought I had misused the use of the word exposition.

               It’s ok.  I like to twist things up every now and then.

               If you favor a short; concise; succinct; to the point; Cliff Notes writing style:

                       They will not be found on the following pages.
                       I am inclined to rambling.
                       I will eventually tell you the complete story.
                       Hang in there and always remember to use your critical thinking skills.

               This is an adventure on foot not by a rocket.
               If you appreciate pithy, infuriating, maddening, make you think statements on nearly every page; thanks;
               we will get along just fine.
