Stupid things

I have come to the realization that most people live to do stupid things. While our soldiers are gone the family members left home do some of the stupidest things. One of my old friends, I use the term loosely, was paying for a service that turned into an affair. Her husband doesn't suspect. He has called home because he got scared on a mission because he saw a truck get hit by an IED. All the wife did was laugh at him. How can you laugh at your man when he is reaching out to you for some understanding and love. I realize that we all react differently to things, but this woman in the past has shown she can be a cold hearted bitch. I feel that if we are married to a military person it is our job as their spouse to offer them comfort anyway that we can. Even if it means just lisening to what they need to talk out without laughing about how they feel. Another person that I am acquainted with had asked for information which I was able to find, turned around and bit my head off for trying to help her. All I have ever done is try to help where I can whether it be my husband or neighbors or friends. I know I do stupid things I am only human, but damn it is like while the soldiers are gone the stupider people become. I know everyone's life is different and we all struggle day to day, but sometimes I wish the people who wish to judge me could live with my stressors for just one day and see how well they can handle everything that I try to balance and try to keep a good out look towards everyone else at the same time.
