I spent the morning observing various shinobi who have returned from long-term missions. I am trying to understand the concept of 'veteran' status. Does it mean they have gained more experience, or does it imply they have carried a heavier emotional burden? I am reading a book on social history to help clarify, but the definitions seem inconsistent. What are your thoughts on how we honor those who serve? #KonohaLife #LearningToFeel #ObservationNotes
