This image was taken at my dad's pond. Another late evening sunset sweeping along the countryside. Love the reflection on the pond.
This photo is in my mother's photo collection but not taken by her. It is actually a photo that you can find quite a lot on the internet. According to one page this photo was taken on 12th June 1945.
My mother was in the Queen Alexandra Royal Naval Nursing Service (QARNNS) in WWII. She was posted to Lisahally and was there in May 1945 when the german u-boats were surrendered.
Surrender every word, every thought every sound.
Surrender every touch, every smile, every frown.
Surrender all the pain we've endured until now.
Surrender all the hope that I lost you have found.
Surrender yourself to me.
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds,
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds.
Searching until my hands bleed,
This flower don't belong to me.

America’s battle against Japan was a tough battle. Both sides were strong in their efforts to defend themselves, but due to better strategies and stronger, more advanced weaponry, America won. It wasn’t until the bombing at Pear Harbor did America become engrossed with Japan. Many different battles were fought before Japan surrendered to America. America’s militaries banned together and fought not only at Iwo Jima, but in other areas such as the island of Okinawa, the main land of Japan, and the Philippines. With the Navy striking from under water “against merchant shipping and Japan’s lines of communications” they were able to take down and overpower the Japanese navy. The U.S.’s B-29s were “the only very-long-range bombers that saw action in large numbers”, making their overhead combat a success, and finally their ground troops, such as the Army and Marines had tactics that over ran the Japanese’s’. With the dropping of atomic bombs on August 6 at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, “the Soviets entry into the war in the far East, and the disintegration of the Japanese economy are morale” all amounted to Japan surrendering. On September 2, 1945 Japan’s government formally signed the Cairo Declaration, which called for Japan’s unconditional surrender.

...Y es cuando ves que todo se te devuelve que quieres rendirte y dejar que la tierra caiga sobre tu cuerpo bien vestido. Es cuando ves que todo se desmorona a tu lado que sientes que todo lo que eres queda aparte, reemplazado por la mierda de ser humano que algun dia fuiste...
Quizás lo bueno es que siempre queda alguien que aún cree en ti, que aún te busca, aún te consuela y te quiere; porque sabe quien eres ahora. Porque estuvo durante tu cambio...
¿Es esa persona la que vale la pena al final? ¿O realmente es mejor esperar a que tu mundo se de cuenta de cuánto has crecido, y esperar a esa persona que tanto añoraste, sufriendo tanto en el camino?

Jack heard a rustling to his right. He turned and found himself surrounded by forestmen! He didn't want to be riddled with arrows, so he was forced to surrender.
