the world is a cruel place, but there are those who have hearts filled with genuine love. I hope that you encounter those people while you are here. I can’t imagine what it’s like being in a war torn country. People look at refugees like they are a burden. But you’re not. You’re human just like everyone and you deserve the best chances in life too. You’re an innocent person caught up in someone else’s battle. I wish you safety and pray that your lives can be rebuilt. Life throws tests at us all the time. You’ve just been tested in an immensely tragic way. I hope this messes reaches someone and helps. I’m hoping to volunteer somehow in the future, because I know if I we struggling there would be people who would help me too. Remember these things: you are loved. You can build a life. And anything is possible for you.
