Reclamation

Came across this quote, which seems apt for the season. May these last few weeks of 2006 be a season of reclamation...

Ultimately, we have just one moral duty: to reclaim large areas of peace in ourselves, more and more peace, and to reflect it towards others. And the more peace there is in us, the more peace there will also be in our troubled world." - Etty Hillesum


Etty Hillesum aided Jewish victims who were interned at the Westerbork concentration camp. She was later interned herself at Auschwitz, where she died in November 1943.
