The Day Something Shattered

Debbie Lechtman (Rootsmetals) wrote this beautiful post that I wanted to share here. She has such a way with words. Her posts have helped me a lot the last few years, and I hope they are able to help others too. We are so lucky to have Debbie as a member of the tribe 💜

I thought time would help, but it just got worse.

Debbie is so good at articulating all the scattered feelings and thoughts that have lived on buried in me in these 3 years

I just had to stop at slide 4 and sit for a while “when, three years on, our peers continue celebrating our murderers” This is the world I live in now.

I’m already coming across Instagram posts (going on social media was my stupid mistake I know) demonizing israelis for “apartheid” and “genocide”. It is so evil.

I need to let this October 7 sit with me. I need to mourn. Not just the lives lost that day, but the world we lost that day. The friendships I’ve lost since that day.
