What Matters?

“Being human always points, and is directed, to something or someone, other than oneself — be it a meaning to fulfill or another human being to encounter. The more one forgets himself — by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love — the more human he is.”

Viktor E. Frankl

A picture worth more than a thousand words

As I sit here writing this I am surrounded by family pictures on my desk, some very old and some new. We all have these images to remind us if those we love and those we have lost. Sadly, not everyone has these images.

The World Memory Project is building the largest free online resource of information about victims and survivors of Nazi persecution—to restore the identities of people the Nazis tried to erase from history and enable families to discover the fates of missing loved ones. The project allows anyone, anywhere to type information from historical records into databases that are being made searchable online for free.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words…..but perhaps its worth a little bit more.
