108 Year Old Woman Survivor of a Nazi Concentration Camp

I was sent a link to watch an interview by Anthony Robbins of an 108 year old woman that survived a Nazi concentration camp.  I actually had it in my inbox for a month before I finally took the time to watch it.  I feel badly that I missed an entire month of not hearing this lovely woman's words.  So, I share this with you...

Although the main message she delivers is about gratitude, the following quote impacted me tremendously:

"Hatred eats the soul of the hater, not the hated."  Alice Herz Sommer

I also paid particular attention to when she talked about being a mother to her five-year old son, "He saw me laughing.  How can a child not laugh when he hears his mother laugh?"  I love that part.

I hope this brought you a smile, or at least something to think about.

With gratitude, of course -
