Friday begins with Maggie's mom, Pat taking me to class. Done at noon and then off to the airport. Thankfully we cover something a bit more uplifting today-the rescuers, those that Yad Vashem recognizes as "righteous" and some that will never be due to not knowing their names. Watched the film, "Courage to Care", great stories of ordinary people who did the right thing. People like Marion Pritchard and the Trocme family in France. This kind of renewed my faith in people as a whole. My instructor told us it was never a good idea to ask kids what they think they would have done, because we don't know, but I would like to think I would have been someone who helped in some small way.
What a wonderful, wonderful week. I learned more than I ever thought was possible and made some wonderful friends in the process. Thank you to those who followed me on my journey!! Until next summer! :)
Shalom,
Heidi
