Okay so like 20 people came up to me today and were like "Sorry dude, you deserve so much better than that"
Because i got really screwed over at the awards night last night. But i've come to a very simple conclusion which makes it okay for me.
Most people know the work and commitment i put into rotc for the last two years. But, all in all, it is not about the awards. Sometimes things don't go your way, and sometime things that shouldn't happen do. If you always work your very hardest in your station in life, and always strive to do what is most good, right, and true then you will truly know that no award or reward can mean anything near the satifaction you get from doing the right thing, and doing it well.
Am i upset, yes. Am i dissapointed, yes. Will i react in any way that will bring disrespect towards me or rotc, no.
This, although an injustice, is just one more way i can teach a valuable lesson to people who may be in my situation in the future. The lesson: It is not about the awards. The reward for a job well done is that the job is done, and it's done well.
