Such is the life of a survivor no matter how many years separate them from their experiences. The fear doesn t go away and reflex actions become a part of who you are, explained Appleman-Jurman to one young guest at her presentation last Tuesday. The audience was left saddened as Appleman-Jurman spoke of the nightmare that she lived during the Holocaust of World War II, including the witness she bore to the deaths of her siblings, parents, and friends. She encouraged the audience to read the experiences of others who experienced the Holocaust like Elie Wiesel or Anne Frank. You must not let hatred live in your schools, in your cities, in your countries, because hatred is a disease Do not hate.
Hate is a strong emotion and it destroys.
