Will never forgive
23 Answers
Asked MIL what she thought about the earthquake and radiation problems in Japan and she immediately teared up and said she thinks every day about a relative who died on the Burma railroad and will never forgive what they did to him. She is entitled to her opinion but I was surprised that as a 94 year old she hasn't mellowed one bit on this subject.

I'm fortunate enough to slightly know a survivor of the Japanese.
His eyes were blown out and his hands and forearms were blown off when the Japanese used him as a human mine-sweeper. He is cared for, more or less, solely by his formidable 92 year old wife.
On being asked if he would go to the aid of the Japanese people in this current catastrophe, he replied. "In a heartbeat..............We're not at war with them."
A truly remarkable and humbling man............

jth that brought tears to my eyes.
i had an uncle who worked on the burma railway and he never talked about it but because of it would not allow a certain colour in the house. he was a vicar and normally an incredibly and very patient and tolerant person but would have nothing japanese in the house. i think he must have suffered so much and it hurt him so badly to be like that as he really was the most patient and kinldy person.
