have you ever shed few tears for the !!!! soilders!!!!

You are very right. I just stopped and said a prayer for all of them and their families. I do not know what I would do if I knew someone who was over there fighting for us. I would be so worried for them every day and I do not know if I could function daily not knowing if they are safe. I wish the fighting and the war was over with.

True and agree with u we should pray for them and treat them with respect and care as they are always awake when we are sleeping Salute to Army

The soldiers are definitely doing a wonderful job and most people hardly think of them except during Independance Day. Even the families of such soldiers need to be saluted because they are bravely handling things on the home front all alone when they know that they cannot expect support from their spouses and they might even lose their loved one for the sake of the country.

Apsara, I think our soldiers deserve a lot more than they actually get. We are doing too little and too less. Only recently, on 26th Jan my eyes filled with moisture seeing the family taking the Chakras from the President..It was a touching moment for all of us. I started crying all of a sudden and felt like burst open the lid and do something. Now that 'something' is a vague thing and I could not really decide. However, we can do so many things in our own small ways. It could be including them in our prayers daily or reading a leaf out of their vast life in the school assembly. Just a moment of thought for them even if we cannot do anything substantial. They should get the message that we revere them more than anything else and they are the reasons why we live. At the same time we should respect the families who have so selflessly send their son to the field! It requires a great deal of strength to accept it in the first place. Its for their sacrifice that we are secured, safe and alive!! Apsara, I have high regards for you for posting this. Only recently in one of my discussions I was missing you badly for I always knew how passionate you are regarding this. Thanks. http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1393925.aspx

i an relate to every sentence that you wrote here apsara, and i do think that we should, all of us, remember that the soldiers are the ones that are keeping us safe. I can tell you that in my country every person that is 18 years old has to be in the army for 2-3 years in order to serve his country. and we can never forget that, because we were there, we know the feeling, and we appreciate each and every one of them. i wish all the best for your countries soldiers and for my countries soldiers.

they need our solidarity and Love who keep our country from infiltorators.

Yes they are the people whom we owe so much.I have often been mesmerized by there sense of duty & sacrifice for the country.Everybody should alute them.
