This journey delves into the raw, visceral reality of suffering—not merely the physical sensation of pain but the profound depths of anguish that reverberate through the human experience. It’s a descent into my own unconscious, a confrontation with the genocidal horrors imprinted on my memory, and an overwhelming empathy for the mothers of Gaza who have known the unbearable grief of losing a child, and for the children who now navigate a world without their mothers

To truly understand suffering, we must move beyond the surface of pain. We must acknowledge the intricate web of emotions, thoughts, and memories that ensnare us. We struggle with fear, anger, and despair. We are haunted by the past and terrified of the future. We wrestle with intrusive thoughts, unwanted urges, and the crushing weight of our own mortality (Hayes & Smith, 2005).
