"A mother was grieving over her son, the only provider for his family, who had succeeded in snatching food from the #GHF site once before — but now had returned as a dead body.

The hospital had run out of white shrouds to cover the deceased. The dead bodies lying on the hospital floor were covered by the same empty sacks — once filled w/ flour given out as international aid — that they had taken with them, in the hopes of filling them up with #food."

Each time, making such a decision and signing the documents, I want to drop everything and forget everything.
This is very very very hard... But, it may be necessary. So that they leave peacefully, not in agony. We are always with them - in life and in death, and we are responsible for them. And such decisions, that tear your heart to pieces, are part of the work we do.

Anima Rising. By Christopher Moore.

You are a formerly dead girl, fished out of a Vienna canal in 1911 by a horny Gustav Klimt, but you’ve lost your memory so he takes you to his friend, Freud, who isn’t much help but luckily several gods of the underworld offer guidance and it turns out you have superhuman strength ….then things get weird.

It’s truly remarkable that we exist at all. Each of us breaks free from the chains of history and authority to experience life anew. Today, countless souls will awaken to their first love, their first union, or the birth of new life. Others will face heartbreak or part ways.

This moment, this very act of being alive and conscious, is a quiet act of rebellion against the forces that seek to suppress our humanity. To exist freely for the first time is the most radical and beautiful thing there is. Just knowing that I exist lights up my entire day!
