Foreward to Coming Entries

The next several entries will be from my several journals, kept from around April 07 in Iraq through redeployment and after AWG selection. Eventually, I will be posting items kept on my e-Journal on my laptop, but they have to first be declassified, so I don't know how long that will take.

As a good prologue to these entries, I thought I might share a song by Enya. No, it isn't "Only Time", but rather, "Pilgrim", from A Day Without Rain.

Pilgrim how you Journey
On the road you've chose
To find out why the winds die
And where the stories go

All days come from one day
That much you must know
You cannot change what's over
But only where you go

One way leads to diamonds
One way leads to gold
Another leads to you only
To everything you're told

In your heart you wonder
Which of these is true
The road that leads to nowhere
The road that leads to you

Will you find the answer
In all you say and do
Will you find the answer
in you

Each heart is a pilgrim
Each one wants to know
The reason why the winds die
And where the stories go

Pilgrim in your journey
You may travel far
But pilgrim it's a long way
to find out where you are
Pilgrim it's a long way
To find out where you are.
