@Martina I cannot stand all these people hating on Marta for standing for her principles as a Ukrainian. She had nothing personal against Mirra. She and other Ukrainian players have taken a stand against shaking hands or speaking with Russian or Belarusian players. Respect her choices!
It's not the honors and prizes of life which ultimately nourish our souls. It's the knowing that we can be trusted, that we never have to fear the truth, that the bedrock of our very being is good stuff.

On this day in 1963, my uncle was killed by an assassin’s bullet. This day is forever seared into my heart and mind. Go gently today, as millions of people are working through their trauma. Millions of people are grieving things that happened years ago or decades ago, or just moments ago. Millions will never be the same again. Let’s start by acknowledging our own pain. Our own pain guides us to our own healing, which in turn can help heal others.
