Today is International Holocaust Remberance Day :) (January 27) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I find that it is important for us to remember the Holocaust. This was horrible, murderous, and devastating time in history. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This year's theme for Holocaust Remberance Day is "Normal People" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Perpetrators as ordinary people ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Persecuted people as ordinary people "What is abnormal is that I am normal. That I survived the Holocaust and went on to love beautiful girls, to talk, to write, to have toast and tea and live my life – that is what is abnormal." - Elie Wiesel, survivor of the Holocaust ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rescuers as ordinary people ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ordinary people as bystanders ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” – George Santayana
