Default I am so thankful...

...that I have 2 legs and 2 arms. They may not function as well as they used to but I do have them.

I will be late for work but had to post this. I just saw on the news they are closing Walter Reed In DC.

It was full of young military with severe injuries from Iraq & Afganistan. One young guy looked about 24 and had both arms blow off from an IED and bilateral BKA (below knee amputations).

What did he regret the most? That he had to leave the rest of his unit in Afganistan without him.

I am going to try harder to be greatful for what I have and less concerned with petty bullshit.
