Sorry I got to this so late. I think this is great news. I know that you are shocked by your Dad's current location, but use this opportunity to build on something. Even if you are exchanging the odd email; that's a good thing.<BR/><BR/>After so many years of biterness, my Dad and I found it very hard just to start talking with each other. Then we had to learn to talk HONESTLY to each other - something that we still do not do well.<BR/><BR/>Just take every small step as a blessing along a road that may lead to something better.Jason Berek-Lewishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09857737946220432309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17292664.post-85444502437666187672007-06-20T09:16:00.000-04:002007-06-20T09:16:00.000-04:00Yeah, man, it's so strange. Even stranger is that he's been on my mom's mind the past few weeks. I really don't know how to feel about it. I'm upset he didn't tell me he was being shipped to the Middle East, but I'm glad he's okay, you know? It's just a bit much after all this time to grasp.Brant W.
