This evening will begin the day of remembrance for the Holocaust of the State of Israel.
On this day, there is a kind of feeling of heaviness. The restaurants close early, ceremonies take place throughout the cities.
Everyone has a different way of connecting to memorial days, but my connection to this particular memorial day was never through state ceremonies, because for me this day was a very personal day. Grandpa Reuben and Grandma Sarah, both were children when the N***s occupied the Netherlands and both were hidden, Grandpa Reuben was in the camps, Grandma Sarah was left without a father and a mother after the Holocaust when she was only 14 years old. The memory of Holocaust Day has been alive for me since childhood, I heard the stories from a young age, my beloved grandmother was used to testify, to tell, to remember and not to forget.
Except for one day a year.
On Remembrance Day, when they played sad songs on the radio, when they read testimonies and remembered the fallen, it was too hard for Grandma. She would turn off the radio. Grandma always told me - for me, every day is Holocaust Day, on this day - I try to forget.
When I finished school, I made it a routine to go every year on Memorial Day, visit Grandma Sarah and help her forget - play music, turn off the radio with her, hear funny stories about other things - anything that is not related to the Holocaust. When Grandma Sarah passed away, I wrote her the following words:
To my grandmother
was a tired memory of an old woman
And such a memory its hard for it
to forget
So we forgot together:
you and me. Playing a duet on the piano
Turn off the radio
and forget
on the day of remembrance.
It's already the second day of remembrance that you're not here with me
And I, too, have already grown up
and now
It's hard for me to forget too
In her memory, in the memory of grandfather and in memory of six million.
