This Takes Guts

Navy Lt. Sarah Wilson and her team of explosive ordinance team has said goodbye to each other more than 70 times. Each time they were called to dismantle a roadside bomb in Iraq, they'd bump fists. Then, Wilson says, "we'd all say we love each other because if we never got to say anything else-if the bomb ended up exploding-we wanted to be able to say goodbye." This 27 year old female and those like her are amazing to me. How they can painstakingly take apart a bomb is beyond me. I love how they say goodbye to one another and verbalize their love before each mission. That's something we should all do. None of us really knows how much time we have here on this earth. We may not be dismantling bombs but time keeps ticking for every person. So take what Sarah Wilson does and bump fists with family and friends. Tell em you love them while you can.
These are the days my friend,
