IF YOU LOVE SRI LANKA PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO ALL YOU KNOW
A tribute to the DefenseForces of Sri Lanka
Your alarm goes off; you hit the snooze and sleep for another 10 minutes
He stays up for days on end
You take a warm shower to help you wake up
He goes days or weeks without running water
You complain of a 'headache', and call in sick
He gets shot at as others are hit, and keeps moving forward
You talk trash about your 'buddies' that aren't with you
He knows he may not see some of his buddies again
You complain about how hot it is
He wears his heavy gear, not daring to take off his helmet to wipe his brow
You go out to lunch, and complain because the restaurant got your order
wrong
He doesn't get to eat today
Your wife/mother/ maid makes your bed and washes your clothes
He wears the same things for weeks, but makes sure his weapons are clean
You go to the mall and get your hair redone
He doesn't have time to brush his teeth today
You're angry because your class ran 5 minutes over
He's told he will be held over an extra 2 months
You call your girlfriend and set a date for tonight
He waits for the mail to see if there is a letter from home
You hug and kiss your girlfriend, like you do everyday
He holds his letter close and smells his love's perfume
You roll your eyes as a baby cries
He gets a letter with pictures of his new child, and wonders if they'll ever
meet
You hear the jokes about the war, and make fun of men like him
He hears the gunfire, bombs and screams of the wounded - and of the
innocents who have no one to stand up for them
You see only what the media wants you to see
He sees the broken bodies lying around him
You stay at home and watch TV
He takes whatever time he is given to call, write home, sleep, and eat
You crawl into your soft bed, with down pillows, and get comfortable
He crawls under a tank for shade and a 5 minute nap, only to be awakened by
gunfire
You sit there and judge him, saying the world is probably a worse place
because of men like him
If only there were more men like him!
WHO is HE?
If you support him, then please pass this to everyone you know...
Perhaps people will change their attitude and behavior to support HIS
worthy cause... HE is sacrificing his today for our future Sri Lanka.
LONG LIVE OUR SL ARMED FORCES!!!
OUR PRAYERS ARE ALWASY WITH YOU
