This teddy bear was given to me while I was travelling home from Afghanistan. It had been a rough few days leading up to the start of my travels when this bear showed up on my bunk. I spent every night in Bagram, Kuwait, and almost every night since with this bear. It has become my security blanket. (I know, I am 32 years old. But trust me, I needed this bear.)
Now it's time for this teddy bear to comfort someone else. A friend who has come across a pretty big speed bump in their life needs the tangible reminder of how much they are loved.
While I am actually kind of sad to be sending this teddy bear away, I am hopeful that it can bring the same level of comfort and security to my friend that it brought to me.
