You've got a burning question in your past that burns in your mind like a splinter that will always remain; answer the question.
Remember, hope, and determination is not a course of action. It is an enabler that must be tempered with preparation.
Best of luck!

JLF,
I appreciate your encouragement, though you're probably giving me a lot more credit than I deserve
I believe in God, and that he makes things happen for a reason. My VWing has been a bitter-sweet event. On one hand, it ended one of the best times of my life. Since then, I've never been around guys of that caliber in either civilian or non-SF life and I've never had so much fun and personal growth as I did then. On the other hand, I've been able to have a pretty good life as a civilian. Civilian life will always be there: there will always be a job I can take; there will always be a woman to marry; there will always be another house to buy. But there will never be another chance to get back something I lost that one fateful day.
