Beautifully written. I fear that if Trump wins all aid will stop to Ukraine. We need to support politicians that support Ukraine.

India, Your Ukraine posts are always so moving but this one especially touched me. It’s a reminder of how life goes on, regardless of whether the world around us is in chaos, and it’s a confirmation of how blessed we are, how fragile life is and how easily it can turn. But most of all, you are an example of service to others. I admire the way you challenge yourself. You’re doing more than stepping outside your comfort zone, which is often how service to others feels to many of us. You’re risking everything to help others and that is the greatest service of all.

Beautiful in so many ways, and yet, haunting. I am in awe of the people in all parts of Ukraine. As I sit here in my suburban kitchen in the US, I feel so guilty. I give so much credit to you and those who are actually there to help, to give and to witness. Thank you for sharing your experience. The few dollars I send for Ukraine aid might have helped feed one family for a day.:(

Beautifully written. The last line goes to the gut. Colonizing is a story we are well aware of. Not just Russia and Ukraine but the Western countries supporting an ongoing genocide in Palestine. It’s a tough day to celebrate.

Thank you as always for your service India. You are a fabulous role model for men and women in the world. I truly appreciate that about you. Your heart is always in the right place. Your mother taught you well. And you are simply special in your own right.

Happy 4th.

A very touching emotional account of the situation in the Ukraine. Thank you. I hope it reaches those people that support the GOP‘s reluctance to send aid. Thank you for what you do and risk.
