I carry fear—for my friends' lives and for my own.
'Where do you want to be buried?'This is not a question that mothers are supposed to need to ask their children. Over the past nine years, as an active reservist, I was always aware of the possibility that Israel would find itself at war and that we would be called upon. But even in my darkest nightmares, I could never have fathomed the events of October 7.Hamas brutally murdered over a thousand civilians, including women, children, elderly—even infants.
That flag, which last Saturday was the backdrop to a scene of love and unity, now serves as a symbol of strength and resilience in the face of terror.The flag in my vest is not the only thing I carry. I carry hope that if we are able to remove Hamas from power, Israel will become a safer place. I carry belief in the justness of our cause. Before I left, my best friend reminded me that bravery is to act without fear, whereas courage is to act in spite of it.
