COT: Q was recently in Israel and met with hostage victims who had been held by Hamas. Also met with many other Israelis around the country. Although they live in constant threat and currently in seven front war — everyone was hopeful, happy, thoughtful and kind. They say that as a country this is the way because you need to appreciate every day and treat others as if it could be your or their last day (because it just might be). Life is not long enough to be angry and resentful. It is a good reminder to treat everyone as if it could be their and your last day. Let kindness and happiness win the day.
