It seemed so fragile, resting there, and such a silence filled the air, the beauty of the moment caused me pain. "What more?" I thought. "There must be more." As if in answer then, I saw one weighty drop that caused my rose to fall. It trembled, then cascaded down to earth just staining gentle brown and, since then, I've felt different. That's all. ↗

Being a Jew, one learns to believe in the reality of cruelty and one learns to recognize indifference to human suffering as a fact. ↗
