October 7 Attacks

Two years of tears.

Two years of fear,

Of hope

Of rage

Two years that feel like a lifetime but also a blink of an eye.

Two years of uncertainty.

Dashed hopes,

Bitterness

Frustration

Disbelief

Heartache

The not knowing

For those who have carried the pain for two years with courage to speak the truth about this conflict while never stopping to pray for peace and resolution, I hold you in my heart today.

For those unable to sit shiva for a loved one….I hold you close.

    Love your compassion. I heard someone today say that anniversaries normally commemorate an event in the past. But it this case it is an anniversary marking continuing loss and trauma. It will always be a sad day of remembrance.
