Woke up and feel mortified. Typos! Rambling! Oh boy. I hope this somehow helps and reading it doesn’t feel like a waste of time. Sorry!

Thank you again. This exactly resonates me. I just continue to be in an anxious fog. Worried about the hostages. Worried about the future of Israel. Worried about the Palestinian civilians. Just sick to my stomach. I don’t know how to place myself in the Progressive political party anymore as Jewish woman when so many continue to deny or minimize antisemitism. I feel so untethered and lost. I don’t want to read anymore about it all but I can’t stop and I think I have a responsibility to do so. This is the first time where I really understand the depths of anti-Jewish oppression personally (despite knowing our history and having read so much Holocaust and related literature). Perhaps I am grieving a sense of privilege as well. Anyway, it is all so much. Too much. Thank you for making me feel less alone. Please keep writing even if you feel you are rambling or it’s not your most eloquent work. It is important.
