“””Every time I visit the horrors of Auschwitz, I ask myself...what would I have done if I had lived near by? as an ordinary citizen?”””
Huh? You regularly go visit Auschwitz?? I find that.......disturbing. Once I can understand, but to go there again and again??
Weird!
I don’t consider it weird.
I happen to live in the region, and whenever I have visitors, especially young students, I make sure I take them to see the horrors.
Don’t get me wrong. I don’t enjoy returning. In fact, these visits do take an emotional toll on me. But I see it as my duty to make sure that, at least in my watch, my visitors will learn something new and never forget.
