18. Why Don't I Want to Re-do My Life?

If all wrongs can be forgiven, why do you have Police Officers?
Synopsis
The Forgotten Road (The Broken Road Series)
By Richard Paul Evans

From New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Rhys Bowen comes a haunting novel about a woman who braves her father’s hidden past to discover his secrets…

“Pass the bread, the olives, and the wine. Oh, and a copy of The Tuscan Child to savor with them.” —NPR


In 1944, British bomber pilot Hugo Langley parachuted from his stricken plane into the verdant fields of German-occupied Tuscany. Badly wounded, he found refuge in a ruined monastery and in the arms of Sofia Bartoli. But the love that kindled between them was shaken by an irreversible betrayal.

Nearly thirty years later, Hugo’s estranged daughter, Joanna, has returned home to the English countryside to arrange her father’s funeral. Among his personal effects is an unopened letter addressed to Sofia. In it is a startling revelation.

Still dealing with the emotional wounds of her own personal trauma, Joanna embarks on a healing journey to Tuscany to understand her father’s history—and maybe come to understand herself as well. Joanna soon discovers that some would prefer the past be left undisturbed, but she has come too far to let go of her father’s secrets now…
I believe that whatever we did, we did it for a reason.
If it turned out differently, we then learn from the mistakes.
Next time, we won't do it again. It's a process of growing to be a better person.

If you didn't fail the subject, you wouldn't know you need to study harder.
If you redo the life; you never failed that subject, you would play so hard, and you thought you were the cleverest of them all.
Would you then, invent something on that subject? NO. Because you thought it was enough.
