What really matters in such a broken world?
This was meant to be a big week for me.
On the day the bodies of Hersh, Carmel, Eden, Ori, Almog, and Alex were found (1/9), just days after their execution, my article, Feeding Our Folktales to the Sea, was published in the Jewish Literary Journal.
Today (2/9), on the day of the funerals, my interview about On a Chariot of Fire will be published in Paper Brigade Daily (PB Daily).
And tomorrow (3/9), during shiva, On a Chariot of Fire is released.
In one week (10/9), when aninut ends for the families, Mixed-Up Mooncakes is out.
What really matters is that we all allow ourselves to feel this tremendous loss and that we never forget. We are mourning for people we never met, but got to know through their families.
There are families grieving. Our nation is grieving. We are grieving. They were part of all of us.
Words are not enough.
