Just because things "could have worked out better .." it doesn't necessarily follow that bridges can't be mended and dreams can't come true. . . it all depends on how hard we are prepared to fight and how much we truly cherish the ones we love most. There's little point in lamenting and locking away the dreams of your heart.

Prevent, somehow, my Dad dying in a Japanese Prison Camp at age 28. He was in the R.A.F. and his troopship was torpedoed en route to Singapore.He and a few other guys survived on a life raft with no food or water for 8 days before landing on an island. My Dad and another guy walked to a local village to get help for their horribly wounded mates. The villagers handed them over to the Japanese and they were used as forced labour to build Tokyo Airport. Dressed in only ragged shorts in sub-zero temperatures and starved; my Dad caught pneumonia and died. I was only 1 year old at the outbreak of war so I cannot remember him so I would go back and meet him.He's my Hero.
