I was ...Man oh man, my mind is blowing right now. <br /><br />I was lying on my bed in Nablus, Palestine, with a headache. I couldn't focus, I couldn't write, so I listened to a Radiolab episode. I learned about Emily Gossiaux for the first time and was stunned on all kinds of levels. I'm a bicyclist, an artist, and have been shockingly lucky in my personal hospital experiences. I looked her up, and through a series of random clicks... I'm here. Learning about you for the first time. I was just getting shot at 2 weeks ago, dodging those canisters and being a token white guy so that the locals wouldn't be ignored quite as cavalierly or maybe not abused so horribly in the view of international presence. I took the lobbed missiles seriously, but I felt I was in some video game approximating real violence. Now I think of you and your eye, your mother's words echoing my own, telling me not to go to Kalandia....I'm freakin' out, man! <br /><br />I've only just e-acquainted myself with you, Emily, but keep up the good work. Though I'm an absurdly niche section of your audience it's safe to say your experiences and expressions of them are -quite- relevant.Davey Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03845117836698904136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4115313696990206457.post-48784448676567293152011-06-05T16:55:00.498-04:002011-06-05T16:55:00.498-04:00you are such a humblingly generous person there sh...you are such a humblingly generous person there should b more of youAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4115313696990206457.post-37657007196063458942011-04-26T20:33:35.175-04:002011-04-26T20:33:35.175-04:00How saddening, I hope that everything is better fo...How saddening, I hope that everything is better for her now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01331729267236430016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4115313696990206457.post-56562074650175419882011-03-17T00:59:07.036-04:002011-03-17T00:59:07.036-04:00I am on a very fixed income, but donated what I co...I am on a very fixed income, but donated what I could.
