    Wow. I’m so glad you shared and it’s a terrible reality. I can’t imagine what you’ve been through and I’m sorry that it’s happening on this earth.

    I don’t know that there is a way to continue on living a ‘normal’ life given what you’ve been through. That’s not normal and there’s probably no going back. I can’t tell you much, but I know that suffering is not without cause. There is something to be learned and shared from suffering that leads to greater good for those who can transmute it into something greater ‘carry the cross’ so to speak. I’ve never met anyone from Palestine so thank you

    I’m trying to live but everything feels heavy and unreal

    Is it realistic to assume it should feel any different at this point? What you’ve been through is really hard. I get you are wanting to feel different. But maybe you are not ready
