I want to have the strength, character and bravery of Irena Sendler.
"Every child saved with my help and the help of all the wonderful secret messengers, who today are no longer living, is the justification of my existence on this earth, and not a title to glory,"
About ten years ago I was blessed to go to the Feast of Tabernacles in Israel and Jordan. One of the truly amazing places we stopped was Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial in Jerusalem. I will never forget it. It is horrifying to think of all those people and not only that they died, but HOW they died. The truly moving part was a separate museum there dedicated to all the children that died in the Holocaust.
It makes me glad and thankful that I live in the United States. For all its faults (which are gaining every day) it is still the land of the free.
