TN50#196_A Text That Broke My Heart_28 April_2025

Hi Team,

Imagine this is the last text exchange between you and a dear friend who deployed to combat with you on multiple occasions, and I mean real, no-shit combat.  Imagine busting his chops because he preferred to lift pints over pounds.  Imagine the unabashed solicitation, hey give me money I can help you…  Imagine he had already suffered a mild heart attack since leaving the service and you goof him with the “cry” emoji.  Imagine this is how the text string ends.

What would you do differently if you sent the blue and white texts?

What would you do differently if you sent the black and white texts?

It doesn’t have to end like this.

Have a good one,

Alex
