it's amazing how ordinary objects can become so significant to only the owner

when my aunt's best friend passed away, my younger brother was four years old. at his funeral, my brother went up to her and gave her a nickel. he told her very solemnly that it would make her feel better. she smiled for the first time in days, and tucked it in her wallet.

when my brother was 22, his best friend passed away unexpectedly. my aunt drove three hours to be there for him at the funeral. she went up to my brother, gave him a big hug, and then gave him a nickel. it was the same nickel; she had kept it in her wallet for 18 years, and now it's on a necklace that he never takes off.

what i'm trying to say is that the love you put into the world will always find its way back to you.

An iconic photo taken in Germany in 1931. On the back of the picture, the rabbi’s wife wrote, “Our light will outlast their flag.” One of the bravest pictures ever taken.

more context/correction: the photograph was taken in december of 1932, less than two months before hitler became chancellor. the nazi party had already been the largest parliamentary faction for months being most successful in the state of schleswig-holstein where this picture was taken. the flagged building was their district office in the city of kiel. the photographers husband was rabbi dr. arthur posner who was the last rabbi in kiel before the holocaust. the SS had committed a bomb attack on the citys synagogue in the summer of the same year. his family and many other jewish inhabitants of kiel, making up the biggest jewish community in the state of schleswig-holstein at the time, fled to palestine or the usa in the following year.

this is the back of the photograph

“judah die”

says the flag-

“judah lives for ever!”

replies the light.

I think you carry the people you’ve loved with you forever, not in a ‘you can never get over them’ way but more like loving them changed you and it meant something and you have to make peace with that

You deserve love now. Not once you lose weight. Not once you accomplish that thing. Not once you move. Not once you get on medication. Not once you start therapy. Not once you get that job. Not once you're more like them. Now. You don't have to earn the right to be loved. You deserve it right now, and always have.
