Today is the last day and tomorrow is the first day of forever. After almost 17 years of wearing a military uniform I will no longer put on the uniform of my country. Tomorrow is the first day of being John Q. Civilian and is also my birthday. Happy Birthday to me.
So how does the fact that this is the last day in the military for me feel? Honestly nothing. I don't feel anything. People have asked me over and over again how I feel about this life changing event. The only thoughts I have on it are whether the "incapacity" payments and superannuation payments will start at the right time so my family will be able to pay it's bills and be able to eat. Other than that I am rather indifferent to it all. I just don't care.
Well this chapter closes and another begins. Will this be a long chapter? Will I even be bothered? Who knows what life has installed for me.
