im so jealous

 Had to write a paper about a historic event/person a while back and I chose the Holocaust/Elie Wiesel's book, Night. My teacher handed the paper back to me and she wrote in the margins that Elie spoke at MY SCHOOL in 2000. Omg the one interesting thing* that actually happened at my school, and it happened years ago... I can't even find anything about it online. She wrote he said the most important lesson for humanity was to "not stand idly by." I really wish I could've heard him speak that day 💔💔💔 It was probably such a rare and amazing experience. Elie's book was great too; I read a bunch of Holocaust memorials and wanted to write some reviews but never got around to it yet. 

He's so precious RIP Elie 💔

*I did get to listen to a Pearl Harbor survivor that visited my school a few months ago though. It was really fascinating to learn about.
