Hi there! I am terribly impressed by the Ukrainian women, men, teens, and children. And so I take the real events and wrap them into my book. A tribute.
Take this little girl. A Russian soldier shot her in the face, and yet she powers through. Then, there is a 16-year-old soldier who rescued five children. Russian soldiers broke into the home of one family. The 15-year-old boy was injured, but worse, he had to watch his mother die in flames. A 16-year-old couple said goodbye to one another. He was off to battle. She was off to America.
Then, there was the kid who went with his dad to go get some medicine. The car was stopped. They raised their hands, and the father said they had no weapons. Instead of replying, the soldier shot his father in the heart — twice. Then, he pointed the gun at the boy’s head and fired. Fortunately, his hoodie tricked the soldier. Still, a bullet went in and out of his arm.
The cruelty begins at the top of a dictatorship then works its way down to the youngest soldier. We have seen something similar happen here.
A bittersweet. time.
