Courage

I was watching an episode of 'Oprah' today (yes I know what your thinking!) but I am strongly inspired to write a post about an incredible courageous individual...

This is just as a small reminder to us all that no matter how much of a 'bad day' we have... There is someone out there going through something much, much worse...

Corey Brest is a soldier who served in Iraq for the American Military and tragically was hit by a roadside bomb in 2005.... This injury left him almost blind and unable to move or speak as before... On the show, his wife sat by his side and 'translated' his mumbled speech for the viewers... What an incredibly strong bond they have! As much as I feel for Corey, not being able to see his own two children grow up - his wife is an incredible woman too... She has such passion and dedication to her brave husband... She is not just his wife, but his caregiver... What a pure love these two share !

I saw this picture online on a blog and felt inspired to share it... What a beautiful moment captured...
