Quoting nastica:

A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defence than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death.

But I bet he wasn't talking about the Turkish army...



Of course he wasn't talking about Turkish army but we have what to learn from him

Thank you for your words Deniz girl, you are right about what you say.

I know Tunceli is a small and poor province but come on they don't even have a bank for him to go to get some money, and I can't call the mobile someone smuggled in because there is no Telsim signal in the Tunceli mountains! Maybe I'm whining but this can't be happening in the year of 2007



When I read it....ohhhhhhh.... I understand you so muchhhhh!!!!
I wish I could help you and everybody in this situation. But..what can we do
Me, the same, I just can't contact him. Telephone is closed. It feels like he is on the other planet.
All we can is to wait and to pray.

Always keep a positive spirit and remember what situation your loved ones are in. I'm sure it's very hard for them not being allowed to call you as well. They wouldn't refer from calling you if they had a choice.

I have spoken to my husband a few times now but it's certaintly not easy. We were supposed to attend his niece's marriage in June or July but he's been told that he can't have a holiday for the next nine months, their excuse being that it's too hard to travel to and from Tunceli. He won't even be haing any afternoons off because he's staying in a small town. Everything is just so hard right now and I'm trying my best to keep a positive spirit for him, because when it all comes down to it's him who's in the army, not me. At least I have the freedom to go outside and take a walk when I want. He's trying to be strong as well but I can hear in his voice that it's really hard for him. He's very close to his niece and was looking forward to attending her marriage party (she's going to live in another city as well) and apparently we won't be seeing eachother for nine months. I cannot even begin to imagine what it will be like. We have basically been inseparable for three years.
We have been joking about running off to Somalia and I'm starting to think it isn't a bad idea.

Sorry if I'm rambling too much. It's just that there's not really anyone around here who understands our situation.
