War, loved ones lost, starvation, homelessness, racism, misogyny , extreme parental abuse, poverty, sexual abuse..etc etc etc.

I would have been horrible person if I didn't have my grandparents later.

I guess I deal with them one day at a time.

@Tastyfrzz

The hardest part is living in a world that denies its part in it. And without the acknowledgement, there is no way we humans as collective will make this stop.

Compassion is great. Empathy is great. But none is good enough.
