    I´m in tears, my cousin brother never returned. He didn´t make it. May he and all the other fallen heroes rest in peace. Witnessing all these heartwarming reunions is such a blessing. Please, cherish the time you have with your loved ones, it doesn´t last forever.
    Thanks to everyone for your kind words. May you be blessed :)

    A human's heart cannot endure the unbearable pain of the loss of a loved one. Behind those reunions i see the sleepless nights, the tears, the prayers for those who are far away in a foreign land, in hostile places, in the unknown. That's why videos like this one are so touching. I shed tears for all of them. Joy & sadness. May God put an end to the war of Ukraine and the new one in Yemen. May protect all those who serve🙏

    The Ukraine soldier hurt me the most. Cause, of all those soldier return. He has the highest chance of not coming back. To see his daughter again. By the numbers of how many soldier dies in the Ukraine front line. Its getting to be higher. Then the USA 20 year war. In just one year. It just sad, that this could be last moment for him. To see his daughter again. Once he goes back to the front.

I'm currently serving in Ukraine as we speak (in recovery atm due to an explosion, gettin all healed up for a full recovery thankfully) and i dream of coming home to suprise my lil girl and my family every night. Im 3 almost 4 months in my first tour here and ill be here for atleast another 6 months. So thank you for understanding what it is we are going through over here. In the words of my brothers, both the fallen and the fighting ones, stay safe and stay dangerous.

    Parabéns aos que podem voltar, pra família e amigos. E honremos aos que tombaram. E João viu novo céu e nova terra, onde não teremos guerra nem mortes, todos nós seremos um só povo com Deus. Amém
