Alongside the beautiful footage of the burning Crimean bridge, look at these photos of a restored school in Irpin that Russians destroyed in March:



The last image is a bomb shelter because nobody believes Russians will bugger off for good.
The people’s desire to rebuild is absolutely amazing.
It really is amazing. In this you Ukrainians are giving the rest of world a lesson in quiet dignity and resilience.

I’m hoping for a renewal of the world in the direction of strength and resilience. I hope people will be inspired, start learning more about this way of being and then adopt it for themselves.
This is genuinely a different way of being a Westerner today.

Thank you for your continued posts and for Ukraine’s continued resilience.
I was driving to visit a friend (in the UK) this morning and I realised that I was still seeing as many Ukrainian flags and symbols of support as I was seeing Union Jacks.
The relative absence of our flag didn’t surprise me – there’s long been a national trait that says we don’t need to advertise our superiority (and yes that is said tongue in cheek!). I was surprised by how moved I was when QEII died and I knew I was both patriotic and a supporter of the Royal family.
However, I am surprised and pleased by how consistent the public support for Ukraine is here in Britain (England I suppose based on personal observation).
There’s no point to this comment apart from that I want to encourage you and your compatriots. Ukraine will prevail!
