    Holocaust day

    Yesterday was holocaust day here and Time magazine published a story about Poland's 'Anne Frank' - Ruta Laskier, a 14 year old girl who didn't survive it. Her diary was published over 60 years after it was found.

    'If only I could say, It's over, you only die once ... but I can't, because despite all these atrocities, I want to live, and wait for the following day.'

    Since anything I could say would fall way short of anything appropriate in remembering the holocaust and other atrocities in WWII, I just keep my mouth shut in respect.

          Thanks for the humble reminder. It is good to reflect from time to time so that we never forget about these atrocities.
