“The first child tricks you into having more!”
― Atia Abawi, A Land of Permanent Goodbyes
“The story of displacement and loss is woven into the fabric of human history. One day it’s them, the next day it’s you. But as generations pass, most forget that their people, too, have suffered. Some, though, still hold the empathy in their souls. But others choose not to; they choose to help themselves before helping others. Those are the souls who never find true happiness. Their hearts are never full.”

“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” To this day, especially in times of “disaster,” I remember my mother’s words and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers—so many caring people in this world. —Fred Rogers”

please take care of us.

hearts beat and our

And our pain, only a few
people know.”

One Final Bonus – Atia Abawi Quote
“You see, words fade through time, as do faces. But it’s actions that linger, yours and those of others. They stay in the mind and the heart even as your body grows old and fragile. They transform into regrets and gratitude. Their effects outlive your brief stay on this planet.
The best you can do is pray that your deeds lead, in some way, to making someone’s life better – if even for a moment. Especially at a time when their lives have been all but destroyed by the hunters.”
