Jewish women visiting the Užupis cemetery in Vilna, Lithuania, 1917

In the 19th century the road from Vilna Old town through Užupis leading to the Jewish cemetery was occasionally called a death road. It received such a macabre name because of long funeral processions that were going through it. The cemetery was destroyed by the Soviet authorities in the 1960s following the destruction of the Great Synagogue of Vilna. Tombstones were used for staircases in various construction works around the city. Currently a memorial constructed of them marks the location of the former entrance to the cemetery.

This past weekend, people in Prague, Vilnius, Stockholm, Paris, London and other cities came together for an incredibly important cause. We want to express our deepest gratitude to everyone who joined these rallies, standing in solidarity with Ukraine and demanding that Western governments allow Ukraine to strike back against the terror being inflicted on our people. Russia has been relentlessly terrorizing Ukrainian cities with missile strikes, targeting civilians, homes, schools, and hospitals. Innocent people are suffering every day. It is only fair and just that Ukraine be given the right to defend itself and strike back at the aggressor. Your voices in these rallies were a powerful reminder that the world sees the truth and will not stay silent in the face of this injustice. Thank you to all who took a stand. Together, we are calling for justice and freedom for Ukraine.

Vilnius, Lithuania 1900s

I took the wrong bus, and I was swallowing tears all the way it drove to the next stop (it was pretty far from my destination, I didn't want to be late for the train). But the moment I stepped out, I heard ominous quacking, and then saw... a bunch of ducks eating acorns. They were so cute that my misery immediately evaporated like a morning dew.

Life doesn't always turn out the way you want it to - but it doesn't necessarily mean something bad, even if it feels like that at first. Maybe the Universe just takes you by the hand to show you something. :)
