I Still Have A Heart
There was another bombing in Israel yesterday. That's how we talk about it. Oy, another one. We listen to the numbers and we move on. If we hear a name that means a little more to us, it touches us a little bit more but we move on as if nothing happened.
For me this one is different. Why? Maybe because I saw the first footage clip that Reuters had and had tears in my eyes. Maybe because there was a semblance of calm for the last few weeks. Maybe because it was on a bus I rode many times. Maybe because it was in such a frum area. Maybe because I don't yet know for sure that no one I know was killed or seriously wounded. Maybe because I still have a heart.
I don't know why it's different, I just can't stop thinking about it.

Yes, it's very sad. I took that bus many times, as well. HaShem should have pity on us.
