  1. It is so difficult to turn the other cheek. I think it is humanly impossible, it is not in our nature. I work as psychologist. I see how deeply agression & all related reactions and defence mechanisms are ingrained in the human psyche. It serves survival. In hostile environment it is a natural, gut reaction. A circle of never ending violence. I am also a Christian . Only through a lense of Christian teaching l can understand that while adhering to it by both sides of a conflict it will be possible to break free out of the perpetuated violence and hurt. It is something out-wordly. It is not natural in human nature. But look, there are Christian martyrs, saints. They were able to give theirs lives for others in the midst of horror of Auswitz, like Saint father Maximillian Kolbe. It is so heroic. Incomprehensible to me, in a way l understand workings of human psyche.I hope these people will become heroic in making a peace in this region and stop horrendous evil. Circles of evil are perpetuated elsewhere as well. I deeply feel for people trapped in them. It could have been anyone of us. Trapped in the horrors of evil, evoking hurt, revenge, hostility, hate. It is so AWFUL and breaks my heart! Killing these innocent children. Horrors !
