What a spectacular show! I was very impressed and moved by this performance. I really didn’t take his career choice very seriously until I see what he and his fellow musicians do for people. They are the motivators, comforters and inspiration that keep our patriotism in place. These men and women are the pall-bearers of our fallen soldiers. Traveling the world to keep Americans strong and together. Who the hell knew? He must feel some giant sense of pride and weight all at once. I think I want to dig into his head and figure out more.
Anyway I sent him a picture during the show and waited for him to return to his barracks to retrieve his phone. He called me ecstatic after he received it! He was so excited that I came to watch. He told me that he had a feeling I was out there but couldn’t spot me. He even told his friend he was disappointed that I was not there.. and then found my message.
Seeing him was just one reason why I went there. I went there to observe and I saw a lot.
1. He was where he said he would be.
2. There was no scrambling to cover tracks or hide something even when I came to his house afterward.
3. He was very happy to see me and thanked me many times!
I can tell you this.... the outcome of my surprise visits…. have never turned out this positive. Why did I do it if I plan on keeping my distance? Well firstly, I don’t want a liar around me. Secondly, I may not want to keep my distance. This little trip gave me lots of hope. I can tell you these things.. he loves to touch me, my face, my hair, my hands. His voice changes when he’s talking to me about us. He has a genuine smile and kind words.. always.
So far.. so good.
And I needed that bag I packed. =)
