Yonah my heart goes out to you. You are strong. You have the weapons to defend yourself and the world knows it. I’m praying that this will save you, and knowing that G-d is on your side.

There is a deep gnawing within us. We know all is not right on this earth.

We must do what we can do, protect and defend, and hope for the best results.

G-d, as always, will be the final judge.

Yonah, We are with you like a family. We’ve wish you less suffering even as we understand what you see. We have prayer and we also have power and we do not go quietly. I hope you are writing poetically and are psychologically strong.

Psalm 121 ...

I read it over and over

and then out loud

and it calms me

because I believe it

and even beyond my belief

the evidence of Jewish history supports it

even in my own life

try it

see if it helps you as well

I will read it now out loud for you here

God is our strength and your inheritance

we are his Jews

Previously I would have put it down to CPTSD and hypervigilance, but events out in the world and right on my front lawn have justified calling it survival and anger.

To quote Mr. Anansi, "Anger gets shit done."

It has enabled me to do tremendous things for my family in the past and I will depend on it in the present and future, though I'm waiting for the time when I can switch it off again.
