We are still inside those events; it has not yet become history. But when experiences are put into words, it helps to let go of the pain and, most importantly, to keep the memory alive. So that other people can hear and understand, so that nothing is forgotten.
We all have our own October 7th. Where were you that day? How did the morning begin? How did you know what was happening? What did you see and feel around you – in your home, in messages and conversations? What moments stick in your memory?
These should not be the stories of those (or about those) who were directly in the invasion zone, or of heroic deeds (although such testimonies will also be included in the book). We want to hear the stories of how each of us experienced that day.
