The Real Reason Being A Military Wife Is So Hard.

There are a lot of nice perks to being a military spouse — great free Healthcare, a steady income stream for the family, and even discounted rates at the on-base supermarket (CSD: Cantonment Store Department etc) , for example. But there are also many unique struggles that those of us who share our lives with servicemen and -women go through behind the scenes.

As an Army wife (Cavalier's wife), I can safely say that the commitment military spouses have for their partners’ important occupation is far more expensive than I initially expected, and ultimately, they tend to sacrifice just as much of their lives and time to the cause as the ones in uniform.

Your career might have to play second fiddle.  One aspect of military membership that everyone seems pretty familiar with is the fact that service members have to move around quite a bit. There’s no hard and fast rule, but families typically receive relocation orders every three to four years or so while on active duty.

May be I can say that:

My Recent Birthday Is An Example Of My Love For Him and Being  An Army Wife:

 It was 12 at midnight. I sat drowsily on the sofa with the phone by my side. Never had I waited this long for a phone call before my relationship with my husband. Time ticked slowly and with every tick of the clock, my heart sank. Suddenly, the phone rang and I picked it up. My heart was beating fast and I hoped to hear a voice that I longed to hear. It was my Birthday on 28th August. My husband who was and still on exercise area having a really hard time. So, he asked me either he should sing me something or just say some words. I really hadn’t any idea what he actually was talking about. Actually my husband is fond of singing and has a really awesome voice (it’s like I’m in love with that) but he sings every time even in the serious conversations and that irritates me though! So the time he asked me to sing simply got somehow flared me up, but I didn’t reacted much as he was already mentally and physically tired.. He sang me a birthday song in a slow gloomy voice. It made me sad, I wished he would be here at that time. Well, even at that time I didn’t complain, and knew that he’s tired sleepy so I told him to sleep because on the next day he would be hell busy again. I waited for some good cake from him, I thought at least he would be sending something if he didn’t come. But the whole day passed and here was nothing on the door. My sisters made a little party from their pocket moneys and they did their best how much could they afford. I cried a lot. I got angry on my husband when he called me again in the evening, I yelled on him badly…….

After cutting his call, I cried on myself that I did wrong to him, I realized that I shouldn’t have done this thing to him, I can never know from which situation he had been going through. I made my mood good by taking breathes and thinking something really good about our future. I believed that obviously a husband who loves me a lot would have done something really awesome for my birthday but he had a bad miserable routine, he even don’t have time for himself how could he manage something for me in that time span. His love is enough for me. ALHAMDULILAH for whatever I have and I wanted, and he’s the greatest blessing from Allah Almighty.

This is how life changed

But ALHAMDULILLAH for everything!
