As Long as They Wanted Music, They Wouldn't Put us in the Gas Chamber

About every single day, I'm reminded that my troubles are light, my afflictions, few.

This short story is yet another gripping continuation of that truth.

It's the story of the oldest living Holocaust survivor. Her name is Alice. She is 106 years old.

Thanks Molly for pointing me to this.

I agree with Molly that I don't necessarily agree with everything Alice says. (Music is God etc.) But I am shamed to say that the forgiveness that I offer to others in my life looks nothing like hers.
