You don't have to. People cry out to heaven even when they know no ones there to recieve the message, sometimes -because- they know that...just utter desperation. -and you would..wouldn't you, cry out to heaven for -her-, even though she's the only one listening. The prayer is for her, and to her, anyway.
I sang a favorite aunt to sleep, for the last time, with hymnals. The look on her face was worth more than any ideology that might make me give hymnals a sideways look in another context. Sounds like you've been there too...you've seen that. Provide the comfort, it's not for you, you don't have to agree with it. It's a small thing to you, but it probably means the world to her - and in context, it's the last opportunity for something like that you're going to get.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
