Forbidden Bebop.
In a metal planter, a tyre for a nest, rests Bebop. A cross between a shark and a pig, made of concrete, just a head, faded coffee brown. Sans glasses now, looking tired and world weary.

His story his words.

Sweet Nour looking after her sister and such love and devotion to her father 🥹
My tent got flooded, unfortunately I called Rola and rushed back from work to try to open pathways and redirect the water And as always, I was the savior of my family - that's how they see me with their beautiful eyes It was a tiring day, and I think exhaustion has become one of the traits that stays with us, unfortunately zzz Tell the world around us that while all other people sing about the romance of winter and its beautiful atmosphere... we are drowning In the beautiful area between here and the ruined city, while we were celebrating our new tent, harsh circumstances suddenly hit us But despite everything, we are heroes in of our children the eyes The joy they showed when I returned from work during the flooding, I will never forget it a I heard Noor telling Teen, "Don't be afraid, Dad is here." Ahmed I started digging with tools and by hand, creating trenches to redirect the water away from the tent. Even though I had taken precautions beforehand, the surrounding ground keeps collapsing due to the lack of proper infrastructure, making it hard to resist the water Yes, me too, but even metal bends under such intense pounding I'm so tired from all of this, my friend Emma is exhausted too... when will we finally rest and see all of this end?zZ I think you are my hero as well Ahmed I'll share your words, you put it better than I ever could. The videos of your hard work as well. Let the world see you as I do, a caring father and husband and the very best of us I wish it would be over every day

Ahmed reached out, an unstable connect makes it so hard to even communicate.

He is so young and looking after so many and now his tent has been flooded. Don't let repetition dull your hearts, every tent is a shelter for so many 💔

Donate and share please ❤️🙏

A fog surrounds, obscuring the horizon, tents sit upon drenched soil and sand and in the foreground is Ahmed, young and barefoot. Too lightly dressed for the weather.

Ahmed is so busy working for his family & sadly came back to see their tent had been flooded. He managed to undo some of the damage, but it is vital he get funds for Winter clothes & other life giving necessities.

Every share, every donation helps keep body & soul together.

Oh, Omar 😭 look at what has happened to Omar and his family! He shouldn't have to live like this no one should. Please help my dear friend, my heart can't bear to think of them all in this cold and damp. Hungry and denied a place here to appeal to friends 💔

Louay sent me these photos of his children. Thank you to Ruth Marshall for your donation. Let's work for more

It's obvious they need more help, look at sweet Malak not yet two months old, she has known only hardship. Love alone cannot keep her warm, but you can

Two children with their backs to the camera, looking out at muddy flood waters flowing past their tent opening. The older child in red clothes, barely fit for winter is holding the younger in white, both are barefoot. A teeny baby's head is just visible within a cocoon of blankets in a cradle. She;'s in a tent the walls of which are saturated, a rug and a tarp line the floor.

Louay reached out, he hasn't had a donation in five days. I'm sure you all remember baby Malak, meaning Angel in English, we need to support her and her family now with the harsh Winters. No one should be facing this, especially alone.

One of the young amaryllis has gotten large in the leaf and the bulb is so big beneath. Will re-pot some of the larger ones in time.

Started as a what if I pollinate the store bought plants, which are still alive and flower once every few years, to, well, this.

Happy update☺️

Nour & Wateen are in their new tent, that Ahmad was able to buy with your help, particularly a generous $1000 donation❤️

Their old tent flooded, but the new tent (+Ahmad’s handiwork) kept them safe in the rains

Your support means the world to them🌍

We are happy and warm. The outside of the tent, bright white and sturdy. A sign on the tent wall that reads: You have brought joy to our hearts Emma, Jack, Molly, Nicola. We are happy and warm.

You remember Spiderdepot & her steadfast support of Ahmed. Sadly all her accounts have been banned, including the account for saving Ahmed's posts & helping his family

She was working to help buy winter clothes for Ahmed's family.

Okay, this is making me furious, they have banned Olive! With the severest ban possible, all their work has been deleted, thankfully they have it archived, but Olive has done nothing worthy of any kind of ban.

Nurse Raghad reached out, she's under so much pressure, but I still had to almost beg her to let me help 😅

She like so many doesn't want to be a burden, as if her friendship weren't a treasure 🥹

No donations in a month, any amount or share helps 🙏

Rivkah E Gamble 24 Nov at 06:36.0 Why Did God Create Atheists? There is a famous story told in Chassidic literature that addresses this very question. The Master teaches the student that God created everything in the world to be appreciated, since everything is here to teach us a lesson. One clever student asks "What lesson can we learn from atheists? Why did God create them?" The Master responds "God created atheists to teach us the most important lesson of them all the lesson of true compassion. You see, when an atheist performs and act of charity, visits someone who is sick, helps someone in need, and cares for the world, he is not doing so because of some religious teaching. He does not believe that god commanded him to perform this act. In fact, he does not believe in God at all, so his acts are based on an inner sense of morality. And look at the kindness he can bestow upon others simply because he feels it to be right." "This means," the Master continued "that when someone reaches out to you for help, you should never say 'I pray that God will help you.' Instead for the moment, you should become an atheist, imagine that there is no God who can help, and say 'I will help you.'" ETA source: Tales of Hasidim Vol. 2 by Mar razairazerci I started reading this and was worried it would be something attacking atheists, or bashing religion, but this makes me really, really happy. naamahdarling imagine that there is no God who can help, and say 'I will help you."" Holy shit. Holy shit. Yes. YES.

Always I'd rather share the words of Palestinians, Ruba sent her story, with added alt text of course.

Oh, don't let her dreams fade away, the fight isn't just survival it's hope, hope that heartens us too.

From Ruba:
14:44 Ruba I'll be here from now on I have a lot to share with you. There's my mother's medication, which needs to be available daily, and the start of my university studies in pharmacy. I've already begun and need to pay the fees as soon as possible to continue my studies. I'm in my final year, my fifth year in the College of Pharmacy, and I dream of completing my education and graduating. I dream of paying university fees to complete my studies after the hardship and studying during the war. I tried hard to continue my studies, and my father did a lot for me and to pay my fees. But now my father cannot afford to pay the full amount. So I used the donation link that Ru'a told me about. Ruba So I used the donation link that Ruaa told me about. This is my only chance to raise funds, pay my university fees, and graduate from the College of Pharmacy after all my hard work and studies over the past years. If I don't pay the fees, I won't be able to continue my education or graduate. I tried so hard, and my family gave so much, and I cried every day because they gave me everything they had for me. All I want is to finish my final year at university and to make up for all the suffering my family endured with me and during the war. I'm sorry I talked too much, but I'm glad someone is listening to me. No, no my friend I am glad to read it, I'll share it too so others will know all you have gone through and will support you and I your family and help your dreams come true

Ahmed has sent on what he needs and how much it will cost, screenshotted in a friend's chat by Ahmed.

Text in alt, but we're looking at around $600 so doable, right? We're collecting for Ahmed and Rula and little Nour (4) and Wateen (2).

Let's keep fighting for those that can't be here to ask ❤️

Putting this behind a warning out of respect for others, but please help Nurse Raghad and her family. A severe burn in the conditions so many are under is extremely dangerous.

Give her the help and hope she deserves.
