Travis and I were stationed at Fort Stewart for two years. We are the type of people who can't just sit at home every weekend. We love to get out to explore the area. Being in the military means you know you won't be living in an area permanently. Knowing that, we try to make the most of each place where we are stationed.

She felt like her head and her heart were contradicting each other. I've been there before. Your heart says, "Go for it!" and your head says, "Whoa, wait a minute here." Or vice versa. Have you been in a place where you had to choose between your head or heart? It puts you into a chaotic situation, trying to figure out what is best.
