Today the siren went off again precisely at noon. The siren always seems to go off at noon. Winter has returned. It has snowed for 10 consecutive days. February was like spring, but now it’s mid-March and we have yet to see the sun, plus it’s cold. I was certain the cold wouldn’t return since the entire month of February was warm and sunny. Another Easter nears and this war has yet to end. Another blow to the heart nears at the thought of my poor wife, so far away. Why isn’t God moved to pity at the sight of so many tears? Why must I suffer so much!
