I should have added, this is not an aibu, or a discussion thread.

It's a quiet memorial for victims of the Holocaust.

Thank you for understanding.

✡️🕯️
I will remember them.
And can I share here a lovely Kaddish?
Glorified and sanctified be God’s great name throughout the world
which He has created according to His will.
May He establish His kingdom in your lifetime and during your days,
and within the life of the entire House of Israel, speedily and soon;
and say, Amen.
May His great name be blessed forever and to all eternity.
Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored,
adored and lauded be the name of the Holy One, blessed be He,
beyond all the blessings and hymns, praises and consolations that
are ever spoken in the world; and say, Amen.
May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us
and for all Israel; and say, Amen.
He who creates peace in His celestial heights,
may He create peace for us and for all Israel;
and say, Amen.

Light a candle tonight at 8pm and put it in your window if you can.

I hope you can light a candle tonight

From the darkness may light come to us all.

pestowithwalnuts · 27/01/2026 10:09

I will definitely do this..God bless them all.

I won't be able to light a physical candle (for reasons too lengthy to explain) but I will light a candle in my heart to honour them. My father was one of the first British medics to witness the unadulterated evil of the Nazi regime at Bergen Belsen. Let no-one ever be in any doubt.

WednesdayAllTheWay · 27/01/2026 10:39

Thank you for this. I often think about them. We must never ever forget.

Thank you for the reminder. I'll light a candle tonight ❤🕯
