Never Again

Greek President Katerina Sakellaropoulou on Saturday observed International Holocaust Remembrance Day, describing the genocide of European Jews during World War II as "an atrocious crime that has left an indelible mark on world history."

Existential fear is a strange thing. You feel you may never embrace the people you love again, never have the chance to apologize about any bridges you may have burned without good reason, never again set eyes on your favorite Aegean island chapel and see the Greek flag waving. You are gripped by an inexplicable anguish that you will never again see things that you had once barely noticed.
