Not to get all peace, love, lollipop, and hippy-like on the community, but what goal are we driving ourselves towards in life? Are we so focused on reaching that end goal that we fail to see how "rich" we already are? How many ivory back scratchers do we need to feel happy or successful? Will the journey towards achieving your goals benefit you or corrupt you?

SFC Mark Merino, I believe if you have strong, morals, beliefs and values on what life is and me personally believing in the Bible as my compass I can understand what the journey is. It is so unpredictable. At my retirement ceremony the reviewing officer talked about the dash(-) on the tombstone it made me realize how short/precious life is.

I've heard that "dash" analogy preached at more than one funeral. It is a good one, SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL.
