It comes to my attention each year about this time to appreciate the life I have, the family that surrounds me, and the wonderful job I get to look forward to each week.
Around Thanksgiving last year, I was visited by an amazing 89 year old young woman that lived in Germany as WW2 happened. And while she was not Jewish, she watched the disaster unfold. She was living through it from the age 3 to 8 and remembers everything as clear as day. It just astounds me her memory!
This year her wonderful daughter scheduled her a couple of massages as lives in Pennsylvania and traveled here again for Thanksgiving. Her presence is just refreshing. She was telling me at the end of the war her father, who was a farmer, gave away food and coal to help everyone as there was such a devastation afterwards. Her story was because I was complimenting her thoughtfulness along with the rest of her family. She explained she learned this from her mother and father. She wouldn't hear of taking credit for it.
I see her again before she takes off again and am so looking forward to hearing about her stories. The older generations have such great stories!
Her family and myself are encouraging her to write a book about that time period. It would be so eye opening to read!
