I hope I get my call soon so I can start doing something meaningful with my life.
Ex-Dragoon said:Guys just a quick question, do you feel the only way you can have a meaningful life is to be in the military?
maggie said:well here's my 2 cents to that question ex-dragoon.... i'm 33 right now, and i have always wanted to join the military, but other things in life pushed that aside for awhile. I'm now in the process of getting it together to join , not because i think that it is the only way to make my life meaningful, but because i want to finally do some work that i can feel proud of and give me a sense of accomplishment. My llife is meaningful now.. i have family and friends that i have a very close relationship with, i do volunteer work in my community, and i have a great outlook on life that i share with people around me. But working at meaningless , unsatisfying jobs to just pay the bills( and it barely does that), is something i'm very tired of. I'm now at a point in my life that i am able to make the commitment to join , and i have had plenty of time to make this a very sound decision for my future. It will only make my life MORE meaningful.
