Never Again

We are so focused on ourselves. I think it is natural to make sure you are safe, to make sure your family has a roof over their heads and food to eat, to help a friend that is in need but are we blinding ourselves from the rest of what is happening around us?

Today is the Holocaust Memorial Day in Israel and many people are remembering the horrors that happened during that time and vowing to not let it happen again.

Opening our eyes to what is happening around the world and we will see so many horrific events happening in almost any place we live in.

Sometimes I feel helpless knowing that there is nothing I can do to help out. I’m wondering if this is how people felt back then and what motivated people to scarify their lives in order to protect values they believed are important.

I know I can’t change the whole world but I’m hoping that with any little act of kindness that I do, with every contribution to a cause, I am changing something to the better and making the world a better place to live in.
