Oregon Holocaust Memorial

"All of us children were crying for our parents.
A guard came over to us and yelled,
'Stop all of your whining!

See that chimney, see that smoke,
smell that stench in the air?
That is your parents.' "


Today I am thankful that this memorial of man's inhumanity to man made me cry. That I am not over the pain of what happened to my fellow human beings. That this still saddens me deeply. Is it too much to hope that one day such inhumanity will have ended?
