I am surprised that it has been years already since this terrible war started, and in fact during this time other wars have started in other places. I don't understand how by now people have not learned to live in peace, but it seems to be something we will have to deal with for a long time. I didn't know your story as such, but since I read you here I guessed it because I know you are from there. Those memories will always be with you, but maybe they will heal a little with time, especially if the war stops, but I am glad to know that your family is also well.
We here in Caracas have had several concerts for peace and we have been singing a John Rutter composition, the last time was in November in a cathedral. We cannot be oblivious to what is happening, it is our own world. I don't know if you know this music, but I will share this video with you. The singers are not us, I don't have a video yet, but I am glad to know that other choirs invoke the peace of Ukraine through music. We really hope for the best for your country and for the world. We don't speak your language, but we sing the lyrics with all our hearts 🙏
Unfortunately yes and like you said, the world somehow forgot how to live in peace.
I used to live in Ukraine for 6 years, in Kharkiv City (East Ukraine near the Russian border). I moved to Ukraine to have my master's degree, to build my life and after finishing my studies, I started living in Kharkiv. I am an immigrant but it didn't make much difference later as I am a resident holder in Ukraine. I left my family behind when I moved to Ukraine so I was all alone by myself in Ukraine and rebuilt my life from scratch. I am now a war survivor...
Hive community knows me because of Kharkiv stories. My all articles were related to Kharkiv City and its culture. When the war broke out, the Hive community supported me a lot in real life and helped me in a lot of ways after fleeing from the war...
Thank you for sharing the video, it's amazing and heartbreaking. I appreciate all of your support for Ukraine...
