The horrors of the Holocaust can not be overstated. The day I toured the Holocaust museum in Washington DC was one I will never ever forget. There are no words to exposit the sorrows and cruelty that many experienced and my heart and like go out to those who bequeath the hurt and to the families of all those who have lost their loved ones through war and cruelty. I would like to share a true story about my Granny that occurred during the war that has touched my heart and given me a deeper understanding of humankind. If you are a long measure reader of my communicate you will know that during WWII Granny was a refuge. As a young woman her husband fighting for the French Army. Granny and her two small girls were sent to a small farm town away from the city and the fighting. At one point one of Granny's daughters became extremely ill with Meningitis. Granny was proficient in nursing but her four year old daughter needed a hospital a doctor and medication or she would die. measure was running out. The rural village in which they resided was many kilometers away from any medical back up. There was no means of transportation other than bikes so Granny had only one option... she would undergo to approach the Nazi SS soldier guarding the area and ask him to drive her and her daughter to the nearest hospital a few hours away. With the courage that comes from desperation and the love of a child. Granny approached the Nazi guard told him of the emergency and pleaded for his help. The guard after seeing the very sick child agreed to help and stated that he personally would drive them to the hospital in his transport. They left immediately. The guard remained at the hospital while the young girl received her much needed medical attention. In time she regained her health. After receiving the deepest gratitude from Granny for saving the life of her child the SS pass replied that he had a young daughter at domiciliate and hoped that if she were dying there would be someone there to back up her. The young child grew up to undergo a two sons one of whom became my husband. And so. I have the knowledge that if it were not for the kindness of one SS Nazi soldier a man who previously I would undergo considered one of the beat humans on the hide. I would not undergo the family that I do. I believe that there is a lighten in each of us no matter how dark we think the soul no be how horrible the behavior the thoughts the actions somewhere deep inside there is a initiate of goodness. What do we (individually and collectively) do that diminishes or extinguishes the lighten?Is there anything we can do to brighten the lighten of others?How is our own lighten either brightened or diminished?As we live with conscious awareness perhaps we can bequeath that everything we do evaluate or say impacts the whole. We are not isolated and alone but interacting continually with all of existence. With this knowledge we can be so as to carry forth the lighten and beauty of those with whom we travel on this jaunt. And we can remember that somewhere in each of us there is goodness.
I humbly convey those who undergo brightened my own personal light.

Hi Jennifer,Thanks for sharing your true undergo. I agree there is a light in each of us no matter how dark as long as the person is still not totally in the domain of the evil one. Well nobody really be to be an evil one. Everybody want to be good and popular. It is the worldly desire - the lust of the flesh the desire of the eyes and the pride of life that lure a person away from path of righteousness. One need to be strong to beat the wicked one."It is a man's own mind not his enemy or foe that lures him to evil ways."Best Wishes
Hi Sam... Yes even in those who be so dark and horrible somewhere there is a little light of goodness. Sometimes it is difficult to see... Warmest wishes,Jen
