Without the fear of being killed while going to the market for baby formula,
and then quickly go back, hoping your home is still standing.
Years ago, there was an interview about Mother Theresa in India caring for the dying.
In this particular interview, Mother Theresa was feeding a starving baby while reporters pestered her with comments such as: "You cannot save the dying; you are only one person; look at you as you care for one baby in the sea of many dying people. What is that you are doing… feeding one life?" and as they threw their insulting accusing anger towards her, Mother Teresa focused on the baby in her arms saying, "Look how he takes the bottle, look how he looks in my eyes, look how he is eating…"
She focused on hope and stood in the sea of suffering, doing what she could:
A small stone cast causes ripples.
Those ripples spread forth regardless of what it will run into.
Casting our stone is a daily choice.

Whatever you believe in this horrific, brutal genocide taking place every second we breathe,
please remember that what some people do is not what all people have done or believe.
Innocent people just like you and me, with different skin color, faith, religion, habits, clothing, lifestyles… are the same as you and me in more ways than not.
Please help me help one family stay safe.
Without the never-ending sound of drones, bombs,
and skies brighten with phosphorus explosives.
Mohammed, his wife, and his baby son await the right to leave Rafa for Egypt. We were told that due to the increasingly high demand the cost has increased.
We need 18,000 Euros.
We have nearly 14,000 raised.
Please let me know if you can or know someone,
an organization, or anything else that can help us raise 4000 Euros more.
Thank you xx
