Episode 23 uploaded just now.

Tom Lomax commented on a post for Veterans Talk FB page, I was calling for veterans to reach out to me if they wanted to share some of their stories. I'm so glad he did. Tom's story is rich with lessons about listening to your family and no matter how far you go or how bad things can get, in the end it's all about family.

Vale Paul McKay
I knew Paul briefly when he was the Liaison Officer (LO) to the Commander 9 Brigade in Adelaide. He was an impressive young man. So sad to think he suffered, fought and lost his battle alone. If you think someone might be struggling, please reach out to them.

The older we get, the more we realize that missing the past isn’t about places, it’s about feelings. It’s the sound of a quiet evening, the comfort of familiar streets, and the people who once made life feel steady. Growing older has a way of sharpening those memories instead of fading them. You start to miss versions of yourself you didn’t even know you’d grieve. And that kind of homesickness doesn’t go away easily.

It makes people wonder whether progress always means improvement. Life moves faster now, but it often feels thinner and noisier. Many of us still carry a longing for simplicity, even if we can’t fully explain it. Maybe we’re not chasing the past, just the peace it gave us. And maybe that says more about today than yesterday.
