Sharing the Interpersonal emotional process of an Israeli-American person living abroad:
First, I’d like to delve into the psyche of a Jew. For generations, a shadow of victimhood, cast by a history of near annihilation, loomed over Jews and we all know it. Yet, with the birth of Israel, a new dawn emerged, urging Jews to see beyond this narrative. It’s heartening to note that the young Jews, especially the Z generation, are leading this transition and charting a new path.
As an International social person my social media accounts colorized with all kind of minds and ethnicities and although it’s challenging to see external opinions I find it important to keep listening, because it is truly matters to me what people overseas says about Israel and Jews.
Do these people financially support the Palestinians during the year? No.
Do they volunteer or belong to Hamas or Jihad groups? No.
Do they have skin in the game or just barking at night? I don’t know.
I see what they post, and choose to channel my energies into self-healing and helping those around me. While some may be resilient and outspoken, many face post-traumatic stress, and witnessing their friends posts triggers multi-generational trauma. How can we focus on positive actions, uniting those seeking harmony, and creating a powerful influence to help free the kidnapped, be they old, young, or women? Such efforts can change the situation, and everyone can contribute, whether through advocacy or social work.
I stresses that external opinions and its nature to spring into action otherwise lethargic towards Israel and Palestine are irrelevant. Provoking hate and popping multi-generational triggers of our companions is neglecting interpersonal issues. it is a form of avoidance dealing with game changing actions. In other words, those who can’t think, judge.
These are my feelings.
