Hi, my name is mena and this is my blog, i mostly will be talking about my intrest, friends, and my journey going through life as a black women!!! I hope to share my journey of growing here. Btw I am a new user so i would love to make some friends on this app.
The War Is Almost Over⦠but Our Struggle to Rebuild Has Just Begun.
Every day here in Gaza feels like a year carved into our chests. The war isnāt like it was in the early daysāthe sky is quieter, the air carries less smoke, and the nights hold fewer explosions. But the pain⦠it still lives under the rubble, inside our memories, and in the empty spaces where our loved ones once stood.
Iām writing this today not because the war has completely ended, but because for the first time in a long while, it feels like the horizon is opening a little. A small space where we can breathe, gather ourselves, and try to rebuild whatās left of our lives.
Yet every step forward feels like walking on wounded memories, and every stone from our destroyed home whispers stories we never got to finish.
We lived through nights so heavy we thought morning would never come. We lost things that can never be replacedāhomes, dreams, pieces of our hearts.
But we are still here⦠holding on, trying, fighting to stay standing despite everything.
And in the middle of this long road⦠there is a house. A house that once carried laughter, warmth, noise, and life.
Today, all that remains is an image holding a memoryāand rubble longing for the people who once lived inside.
Today, we are trying to rebuildānot just the walls of a house, but an entire life that was shattered.
We are trying to create a new beginning, to live with dignity again, to give our family a sense of safety that weāve been missing for so long.
Weāre not writing this to mourn what was lost, but to ask for a chance to start again.
We ask for your support because rebuilding after a war is not something one person can do aloneāit is a human effort, a shared act of compassion.
We need you.
We need your hearts.
We need your help to stand again.
My name is Abedmajed Elderawi, and I live in Gaza with what remains of my once large and loving family.
Because Gaza has no working banking system, we use my brother U.S. Stripe account to safely process donations for our family. Nothing is hidden ā every dollar goes where it should. We are ready to show proof of anything, at any time.
Every contributionāno matter how smallāmakes a difference.
It becomes part of our story, part of rebuilding a home, part of reviving a life that nearly faded.
The war may be almost over⦠but our journey back to life begins now.

Thank you to every soul who still feels our pain, and to everyone who reaches out a hand to help us rise again.
Girl I just found you through that asinine reply from that Zutara crit blog and I am so sorry. Like it was a honest mistake and you werenāt attacking Kataang at all and even expressed love for the ship. As a shipper of both it just completely horrified me and I hope you didnāt feel heartache over it. Youāre so young and that person should have seen that before saying something so awful over a mistake. Keep shipping Zutara, theyāre so incredibly welcoming and unlike what people say there are good folk out there in the ship subfandom (same with Kataang! But boy can the loud mouths be *loud* sometimes)
You are the sweetest person ever, thank u, im happy to hear that u know i never meant to hate on kataang and was only expressing that zutara is my favorite, it makes me really happy atleast one person understood that!
