A tale of a veteran
Imagine, one of those veterans in his early twenties where a person demands luxury in his own life. This veteran with the burden of not coming home is going away from his home. His parents, wife, and children are watching him going away from his own home by keeping the tears in his eyes. And those tears are hidden just because he doesn’t want his family to feel that he has become weak. His personal desires and interests are becoming an obstacle in the way of the security and defense of his country. You can’t even imagine the pain of this young man while leaving his house to fight. This young man, who has not even seen this world. Till now. Who wants to spend some time on tea with his parents? Who wants to give more time to his wife? Whose children haven’t become old enough to remind him. He wants to play more with his little daughter. He wants to play some basketball with his son who hasn’t gone to school till now.
Day Routine of Veterans
Now, again imagine this veteran who has reached into his base camp. After working all day for tomorrow’s big day which is a war against his enemies. The veteran still doesn’t know what will happen tomorrow. Will he get to his home back or will he ever meet his loved ones? All of these things are pounding upon his mind. The cold night like the cold hearts of enemies has arrived and only a few hours are left to the decisive day. This man pulls out the picture of his family from his pocket which he has kept with him like the last thing, he has from his family. Then he gets deep into the flashback related to the picture. He reminds the quality time with his family. After that he gets to recall those days when he used to love his wife, spend time with his parents, and used to laugh with his children. He spends all his nights with those memories.
In the morning he wakes up and prepares for the day which has finally arrived. He is at the point where he has to decide between his family and his country. What do you think he chose? Did he choose you? Did he choose his country? He has chosen you and your family. With all this pride and enthusiasm in his eyes, he sacrificed his life.
