A smiling Mychal, illustrated, with books and sunflowers.
Text quote reads, "Library kids are going to save the world"
It is March 2, 2025. My plan was to leave the world on March 2, 2024.
What a difference in a year. I still have bad days. But reasons to stay are easier to find each day.
Thankful for family, for friends, for library kids who ARE going to save the world. Once a library kid, always a library kid π

One year since the martyrdom of Hind Rajab
5 year old murdered by the zionist entity Jan. 29th 2024
"This is the most difficult feeling, to lose your daughter.
This is her weapon, a crown that she was wearing."
Wissam Hamadah, Hind's mother
Hind Rajab was murdered by an IDF tank one year ago today along with several members of her family.
While she was dying, the paramedics who came to rescue her were murdered in their ambulance by an IDF tank as well.
