THE STRONGEST OF BONDS

I think of the lost souls in Gaza; I realised I've seen a level of inhumanity I never thought I would in my lifetime, in the few moments spent here. Just a brief passing instant, but with it comes enormous, heart-wrenching bleeding emotions. Some worldly things cannot be reasoned out no matter how much we try to put it to understanding. 

Innocent lives are lost on a daily basis, and imagine the brutality of being murdered while waiting on food, a basic life necessity and not something far classically luxurious. I don't think people ever recover from the loss of an endeared one; maybe the years find ways to cushion around those griefs, but it is never truly the same. It leaves a bare mark that perhaps the only comfort is to see a bigger purpose. Where these impoverished ones get to feast on a delightful, satisfying welcome in the presence of their noble Lord, something that is beyond compare. And a soul cherishing moments of reunion and unity with lost families as well as loved ones.
