Standing together
Day 1281 - another day in the war. One of the nice things at times like that is that everyone wants to do something to help, to be part of and not a stand-by person. And so we see help pouring in many different ways. Be it attending the funerals of line soldiers, visiting injured lone soldiers in the hospital (both are so not like any other place in the world that there were several articles about that in the international press) and of course collecting donations in money and goods for the soldiers. Every city has several places to we're one can bring stuff for the soldiers and others set a food station not far from the war zone so soldiers can eat for free on their way to base as they travel in this area. Maybe it's not much but it makes me feel happy to see how at times like that all differences are forgotten and we stand shoulder to shoulder as a nation, proud of our soldiers and supporting them 100%. They are risking their lives to protect ours and we embrace them fully. I love thissense of solidarity, these acts of standing together, I love that when really needing it our people will be there in droves.
