"Seeing the Hiroshima Bomb Kill his
Mother and Father"
by Judy Joy Jones


Tom saw his Mother and Father
die in the Hiroshima bombing. He was six years old and considered undesirable as an orphan which the Hiroshima bombing of his Mother and Father had made him.

After literally seeing his family blown up before his young eyes, he vowed revenge against the country that did this.

Later after moving to the United States, he chose instead of revenge to turn his hatred into love for all and tried with his whole heart and soul to forgive and forget.

But often as Tom gave talks on stage about the effects of seeing his mother and father bombed before his young eyes, he would start sobbing unable to continue his talk.

After meeting him, I helped Tom find a publisher for his book. While talking to me; he often wept uncontrollably and I so deeply felt his pain I often wept with him.

Everyone on earth saying guns for all are the answer and the more bombs the safer we are, if they could listen to Tom's uncontrollable sobbing on stage while he tries to tell his story of seeing his Mother and Father blown up before his six year old eyes in the Hiroshima Bombing, would
understand the only answer is loving compassion for one another.

Our choice is so simple; to love one another which is our only separation from darkness.

Open hearts, arms and minds spread the glorious beauty of heaven on earth!
