To All the MGs

I know that a lot of you were really upset with the blog by Bro Jo (if you haven't read it, I don't recommend reading it). Believe me, I was upset and mad too. The thing is, all he's done is lit the fire under me to prove to him that he is wrong about waiting. Who is he to say that I should break up with my boyfriend before he leaves on his mission? He's not God; he's just a guy with a big mouth who doesn't know what he's talking about. He's not worth it.

I'll tell you what's worth it. Think of all the girls who just got their guy back this week. How happy they are to have their man back in their arms knowing that it's not a mirage in front of them. That's what's worth waiting for: to have the love of your life back right beside you.

This is something I live by: If something is easy, then it probably wasn't worth it to begin with. We all know that waiting is hard, but if we stay committed and supportive, we'll get our reward in the end.

So this is what I have to say to every MG and MB in the world: you are some of the strongest people I have ever met, and I consider myself blessed to have met you, whether it was through a long conversation or just a simple "Like" on a status. You're like family to me. That is what the whole Facebook group is: a family. We're here for each other through the good times and bad. We never let someone feel like they're alone in this. We have different stories that brought to us to this group. Even though we may be at different parts of the journey, we all strive for the same thing: to have our guy back with us. So, don't let this dude bring you down. You are all amazing and strong for doing this, and I am very lucky to be a part of this family.
