Make me feel like I am human.

My message to everyone who reads these lines is to remember that the most powerful countries in the world are killing civilians in Gaza. Do not believe them when they speak about human rights and humanity. They have no humanity. We begged them over the past 17 years to break our siege. They never listened. Yet they are rushing to kill us. Keep my stories alive so that you keep me alive. Remember that I wanted a normal life, a small home full of my children’s laughter and the smell of my wife’s cooking. Remember that the world that pretended to be the savior of humanity participated in killing such a small dream. Remember me, as I prepare myself to leave this world by force and go to a better one — one where the U.S. and Israel do not exist. Tareq S. Hajjaj, October 15, 2023

I could be better but I'm considering becoming worse

hey guys idk if you know this but if you don't sleep or eat your mental health gets worse

Wait, what?!

since the day I heard an older man say “relationships thrive when you are always trying to out-serve each other” I have never, ever forgotten it. relationships thrive when you are always trying to love the other person more than they love you. in every way. it’s so selfless. and it’s safe to be as selfless as possible because you know they are doing the same and there’s no doubt that you’ve got each other.
