Why should I be charitable to people that hurt me?
This video means a lot to me. It explains how I felt and changed. People ask how I could care for my adopting parents and abusers at the end of their lives with all they had done to and caused to be done to me. As he says, I did not want to be them, I did not want to be like them, I did not want to replace them with myself. I am not a religious person, and I have seen no sign of higher beings, but I agree it wouldn’t be bad to be like the Jesus he talks about and the way he treated others. The question I never answered is did I forgive them? Hugs

How American Aid Sites in Gaza are Killing Palestinians
For me this was the hardest to watch. I have had to go without food while others ate. I was hospitalized and suffered clinical death due to malnutrition. At the table if I was allowed the meals could turn quickly for me from possible danger to happening harm. I spent a lot of time diving under the table to doge something thrown at me or in dodging the blows aimed at me. Being kicked under the table was common and if I yelped or complained I was the one punished. I learned to eat without looking at my food always looking around out the sides of my eyes because to look scared brought more violence. I was told I ruined their meals. I often could only choke a few bites out of fear and anxiety. I basically ate one meal a day which was at school and mostly was two hot dogs and a serving of french fries, and when school was out I would take a sandwich and stay away from the house. The only place I could eat freely and in peace was my grandparent’s home I went to on the weekends. What these people are going through is a war crime and a crime against humanity that the government of Israel and the military people must answer for. Never again applies to more than Jewish people.
