This is my soldier Leonardo Antonio Arce, also known as http://brotherofthebarracks.tumblr.com/ right now he is studying at West Point to become an officer in the army. I love him so much and it kills me to be separated.

“I never planned on falling in love. But you’re the most incredible woman I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and I couldn’t love anyone else.”











“I knew this would come up….I mean I don’t want to give up an opportunity in dating someone so special just because we’re scared of what the future has in store for us. I want to live life in the present and take everyday, day by day. I know the day will come one day, some day, but not tomorrow so if it means having just one more day to spend time with someone I love as much as you….then I’m fine with that. I’m willing to take the chance to fall for you than to think back and wonder what could have been? You know? You know what I want…What do you want…?”
Monday, July 23rd 2012 Leo took my grandmothers ring off my right hand finger and switched it to my left ring finger and said to me. “This is the best I can do for now. But I promise to always love you even if we aren’t together, we will be in the end.” Its a Promise ring I intend to keep <3
