Un blogger a murit in Irak

Nu stiu daca va intereseaza, dar iata povestea pe scurt. Andrew Olmsted, un maior american trimis in Irak pentru a antrena armata irakiana, a murit pe 3 Ianuarie. Un post scris ca o scrisoare de adio a aparut pe blogul sau ieri, pe 4 Ianuarie. Blog pe care scria din Mai 2007, dupa ce fusese detasat in Irak.

Dincolo de conotatiile politice si implicarea S.U.A in razboiul din Irak , ultimul sau post este foarte profund.
Cateva citate din ultima sa scrisoare:

Believe it or not, one of the things I will miss most is not being able to blog any longer. The ability to put my thoughts on (virtual) paper and put them where people can read and respond to them has been marvelous, even if most people who have read my writings haven’t agreed with them.

I wasn’t the greatest husband. I could have done so much more, a realization that, as it so often does, comes too late to matter. But I cherished every day I was married to Amanda. When everything else in my life seemed dark, she was always there to light the darkness. It is difficult to imagine my life being worth living without her having been in it. I hope and pray that she goes on without me and enjoys her life as much as she deserves. I can think of no one more deserving of happiness than her
