“Your dad, your hero. But everyone else's too?”

It was in the first days of March 1941 that the Nazi authorities in Krakow moved the city's Jews into a ghetto. They all just shoved them in to a crowd district that was surrounded by a large high wall. They forced the Jew's to work in factories event hough they were only skin and bones.

Elena, a young catholic girl lived right next to the ghetto and from her parents bedroom she saw what was going on in there.

Imagine living somewhere where you can see all the bad in the world. In a place from where you can see people who are so thin that they almost can't stand, people who walk around in clothes that barely isn't clothes anymore. How would you react?

Picture yourself waking up everyday and knowing that right outside that bedroom window, there is hell. What if you were that young catholic girl Elena? What if you were the one who got to see a baby being smashed right into the wall and hearing the mother's scream?

Your dad is a hero to you, isn't he? Imagine your dad being a hero for everyone else to. And that everyday that he is being a hero for everyone, he risk his life. He saves life, he feeds people that are hungry, he gives medicine to the sick ones, but all in secret.

But what if someone discovers him and he gets killed? What if he leaves for work one day and never comes home again? What if someone kills him? They kill him for helping others, the ones in need. But what if you also need him? Who will take his place in your life? Who's tucking you into bed at nights, who cheers you up when your sad?

Personally I would not want my father to risk his life, but of course there is two sides of it. It is really great that he saves other peoples lives and makes them better but what about everyday, having the thought in the back of my head that every time you meet him, might be the last?
