I'm so sorry you had to endure this as a child. I truly am but this points to the fact that you are a survivor. Much as you may doubt it some days, you are a survivor. You have what it takes to triumph over adversity. This story is proof of that!

Before writing that post, I had the idea of making one post per week relating an experience of war, then I thought it might be boring to others.

Being one who has only experienced war as you say, briefly in breaking news on TV, the thought of it terrifies me but also fills me with guilt, that others have had to live through it. I have been wondering what your experience was during those days, though I would never have dreamt of asking. Now that you have spoken, I admire your strength even more than before. Do you think you will keep writing about this? Your story is so compelling and important.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4170348357325551806.post-51575786992644551332012-04-04T15:28:35.637-04:002012-04-04T15:28:35.637-04:00Thank you very much!
