Stations of Grief: impressions

For now we mostly are speaking about our views on topics of soviets repression. But I wanted to pay an attention on that how we got into this topic and how deep we got into it. It seems unusual, but that it is that we are 20 young persons with different views, got interested in the topics of genocide. But not only about that. Everybody realizes that speaking and even thinking on these topics is more than hard. Through 10 days we got a plenty of new knowledge, new emotions and experiences of ourselves and others. We saw many of pain, death and suffering. In a same time we saw many good things as well. During 10 days we came to many philosophical revaluates. Revaluates about death and about living. About pains and even about time and humanity itself. After a week our conversations took some Orwellic shapes, after some more days we went even deeper in ourselves.
And we did a lot. A lot of ideas, a lot of opinions and revaluates including on ourselves.
It seems we should have hard work done on a hard topic, and it is so. But working on this topic we have had one of the greatest times in our lives. And I am very looking forward to share our impressions to others in a way we have probably discovered here.
