Day 178 Never Forget

Day 178
Sam II stands in front of the Holocaust Memorial.  It takes up a square block.  Hundreds (maybe more) of cement squares representing those who died. The ground is pitched, so that when you walk into the center, the squares get taller and taller.  Eventually they are over your head. At this point I became overwhelmed with grief and sadness. It was a week ago I was there, and I can still see and feel the power of this interactive sculpture.

Here's a brief link about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorial_to_the_Murdered_Jews_of_Europe



Each day is a gift, open now.
