I'm sending you so much love (and !LUV) @zirochka. I can only imagine how challenging it must be.

With every story like this, I feel like a part of my soul is dying. Who will I be after the war?

I want to say that who you will be is you, just a slightly different version of Zirochka. You'll be wiser through everything you've lived through, gentler with other people because of what you've seen and more grateful for life than ever before. You'll pick up the pieces and sort through whatever you can manage and step forward each day of your life. You're an incredibly strong and courageous woman (from what I am reading in your posts), you'll create a new kind of you and a new kind of life.

But for now, I shall pray for a peaceful sky for you and everyone in your part of the world.

Big, gentle hug 🤗
