I had a great moment today after my workout...Every so often over the past year I run into a retired Navy Officer. We have swapped some stories from time to time and he has always been encouraging and motivating. I haven't seen him in a few months, but this morning we crossed paths. He stopped me and said he has seen me a few times but always been tied up and not able to say hello. He said he was really proud of how far I've come since we last met. He was eager to here how much closer I had gotten to my goal and how soon I would be able to go back active duty. He told me how smart I was and how hard I worked.

The converstation only lasted 5 minutes, but to have a man with his career background tell me "I'm worth a damn" and "I will make a great Officer and RN" changed my whole mood for the day. I feel great. I can't think of a better way to spend Memorial Day weekend then supporting fellow soldiers no matter what branch they are in.
