Miep Gies, one of the protectors of Anne Frank, and the woman who saved Anne's journal from the Nazis, died today.
Have you ever wondered what you would do if you were put into the position of Miep or Corrie Ten Boom or the tens of thousands of other "Protectors" of the Jews during WWII? They could have gone about their business claiming ignorance, but instead risked their lives to save people who could do nothing for them in return.
When I am frustrated by the small problems in my life, it is always good to be given perspective....
Rest in peace, Miep. The world will miss you.
