This morning I was chatting on FaceBook with a very close old friend who I have not heard from in years! This is a good thing.... but I then found out that one of our group of friends is no longer with us. My friends were both in the military, and our friend, Rick Black, went to war right after 9/11 and saw some serious "action". After he returned he was not the same, and he did not receive the help he should have....and ended up taking his own life.
Back in the day, Rick was the strongest, and probably the smartest person in our circle of friends... war truly must be hell!!
I am having a hard time with this....life is so not fair!!!!
Rest in peace Rick, my old friend... until we meet again!

That is so sad and unfortunately happens much too often! Our military needs to take care of our people who fight for us!
