I Am Not Meant For Casual. I Was Born For Soul Crushing Devotion.

Book #1 of 2025

Night by Elie Wiesel

I didn't set out to read a holocaust survivors account as my first book of 2025, I came across it by accident. I was at a holocaust memorial event where I hear the quote '“When you listen to a witness, you become a witness” and found the book on Spotify later that night.

Anyone who hasn't read it, read it. It's a first hand account of a fifteen year old boy who was deported to Auschwitz alongside his sister and parents. I realized in listening to it that I hadn't really read a survivor account before. It was so raw and painful and honest and deeply personal. Near the beginning of the story the author mentions that his family couldn't believe that something like the holocaust could happen in the 20th century, that people would allow it to happen or take part in it. I couldn't help thinking about the horrible things I read about that are happening today and how important these survivors accounts are.

This story will stay with me my whole life and I will continue to recommend it as long as I live.

tumblr is not social media. idk how to explain but its so calm here. like this is the field and the valleys. over there is the town and people. but here we are little sheep in our pastures eating our grass and laying in the sun <3

As someone who has lived under a government I didn't vote for that wrecked our economy and picked on the vulnerable I just wanted to say - change is slow, but it happens because of people who refuse to give up. Keep hope, stay informed, and remember it will get better.
