- In addition to pain and anger, the war brought numbers to the lives of Ukrainians. Big numbers.
Several times a day, our brain, like a drug addict, dives into the numbers of enemies who went to fertilize the Ukrainian land; the numbers of weapons and aid promised daily by the Allies; the numbers of victims who are mourned every day by the whole our country.
We count economic losses, years of recovery, and kilometers of land freed from the occupiers.
Ukrainians and people worldwide worry that they are not helping enough now. Not thousands of dollars, but hundreds of hryvnias. Not hundreds of people, but "only" dozens. Not dozens, but "only" units. Not help to many, but "only" to someone: one soldier, one refugee, one woman, one child...
But only when you become this "someone" by yourself you can realize how invaluable such help is.
After leaving Vyshgorod in the third week of the war, we were sitting on three backpacks in the Lviv railway station flooded with silent black people in March with two frightened children and a two-month-old baby in front of us. It seemed to me that there was no way out.
But step by step, person by person, it became clear. A call from an old friend with a clear plan for the near future. A conversation with my Mom who supported my decision to take the children out. A timely mention of an old acquaintance of our family when someone in Sweden wanted to help someone from Ukraine. The support of the partners in more than ten years ago project - they paid for the night in the hotel, where we were able to wash for the first time after a three-day journey. This is how our family ended up in the homeland of the Vikings.
Sara Friman is the next heroine of Voice4Ukraine. A professional nurse with many years of managerial experience, she is the director of a private clinic for people with mental and social disabilities. She and her team helped our family with housing, job, and everything from food to clothes when we arrived in Uppsala.
We have never met before. They knew almost nothing about Ukraine. But they got used to helping people in need. Göransgården has a long tradition of helping people seeking refuge in Sweden during different wars. And from now on, our family is inscribed in their light history of supporting and practical love to a neighbor.
More about Göransgården's unique approach to all those in need is in our conversation with Sara and also at their website: www.goransgard...
.
With tremendous gratitude from the bottom of my heart to Sara and Göransgården, I want to say to everyone who thinks he does not do enough.
Please do not let big numbers go ahead with one unique human life. Please always do something instead of nothing and help someone instead of none! If you have helped "only" one person, you have saved the unique universe.
