Maybe She Isn't Evil

[RDS]

Out of boredom I digitaized all the letters I wrote to my wife over the years while I was deployed, or stationed elsewhere, during my 23 years in the military. Most of the letters were years ago before email and cell phones. It was the only way to communicate back in the day when you were overseas. My W kept them all. I wish I would have kept all the letters she wrote to me. She gave the letters to me about three months after she left me. She said they hurt her too much to try to read them.

Well, I read them all after I scanned them to my computer. I enjoyed reading them and for a strange reason I felt better after reading the letters. A lot of the reading was almost a history lesson of what I was going through at that time. Most of the mundane things I wrote about I had forgotten but to read it again it brought back the memories of what was going on in our lives.

It's amazing what we went through over the years and whenever I think being married to her was a waste of my time all I have to do is reread those letters to her to know my M was never a mistake. The ending is a mistake, but not the M itself.
