A man from the army knocked on our door. He told us "Your daddy died serving his Country". I didn’t know how to feel. Proud because my father died doing something good? What if he died NOT doing something good? Did my father shoot somebody from the other Country? Did my father even make it to the battle field? Did he die of a disease? Did he ever go to war? Was he just wanting to get away from us? I don’t know if I understand what "dying for your Country" is. I don’t know if I’m proud. Maybe I’m mad at the Country my father died for. Did he really die for the Country? Did he die protecting the honor of his Country? Did he agree with what they were fighting for? What were they fighting for? Could he have done something to avoid it? Could he have lied to the Government to stay home with me instead of going to war? Why was there a war? Was he trying to make the other Country understand they were wrong? Who started it? Why did it happen? Why did my father go to war? What IS war? What does it mean “to declare war”? Is it necessary? Is it the truth? Is my father still alive? Do I believe what the man in the uniform told us? Am I supposed to thank him? Will I be this upset for the rest of my life? Will I become an army man like my father? Will I have a normal life? I wish I never saw that stranger in a uniform, who said told me my father died serving his Country.
