“But I wasn't crying because I was sad. I guess I was crying because we had nowhere else to go, no choice but to go on living in this world. Crying because we had no other world to choose, and crying at everything before us, everything around us.”

Mieko Kawakami, Heaven

Grief is the only proof that I love and I love well. Love and grief are actually intertwined with each other and as "Akif Kichloo" once wrote, "the opposite of grief is not laughter or happiness or joy. It is love. It is love. It is love."

"Grief is love's souvenir. It's our proof that we once loved. Grief is the receipt we wave in the air that says to the world: Look! Love was once mine. I love well. Here is my proof that I paid the price."

– Glennon Doyle Melton, Love Warrior

Photos of the Church of Saint Porphyrius, Gaza City, Palestine. It is an Orthodox Church that was built in the crusader period (1150s or 1160s), but there was a previous church on the site built in 425 CE.

The church has a history of sheltering people from all faiths. Today, 19th of October 2023, it was confirmed by multiple news outlets including Al Jazeera and the Wall Street Journal that it was struck by four Israeli missiles.
