The dream I had about my dad tonight.

Having dreams that involved my dad used to mess with me, just normal everyday dreams like talking around our house, or dad watching me play rugby league at Runaway Bay. I'd get pretty upset when I woke up and realized it was only a dream, I don't mind now.

Before falling asleep tonight I watched a World War 2 documentary about Operation Mincemeat, where the Allies dressed up a dead body with false secret documents that tricked the Germans into believing they were going to land troops in Greece.

Hitler sent around 20,000 German troops from Sicily to Greece in response to the setup, the German troops sat and waited from them to invade Greece while the Allied troops then landed in Sicily, the strategy saved the lives of thousands of Allied troops and hundreds of ships, and the Allies took control of Sicily in just over a month.

This was the key turning point in the Allies winning World War 2, it happened in 1943, two years before the war ended in 1945. From that moment on in 1943 Hitler's troops were on the backfoot, and defeat was inevitable. And it all started with one dead man playing a big part in changing the course of history.

When dad was laying on our kitchen floor no longer alive in the early hours of March 5, 2002, it was a promise I made to him that lead to the Improvement After Movement message being realized a little over 4 years later, and the I AM preventative health / peak performance / online scrapbook being created.

Only time will tell how the I AM message and resource changes the course of history.

ps. My family's surname used to be German, it was changed to Jarman after World War 1 when my great grandfather on pop's side couldn't get a job after moving his family to Australia from England.

Everyone thought he was German so he changed our family name to Jarman, he ended up getting a job with the Salvation Army, down here in Melbourne.

I bought this print below in January 2005, from a homeless man in a McDonald's restaurant in Times Square, New York City. He had a stack of them, it was around 4am and me and an old mate of mine were on our way home after a pretty good night out.

Dr. King said his 'I have a dream' speech on August 28, 1963, in Washington DC, very closeby to where his memorial now is.
