I agree. 'Nations also experience such attacks' is a truth worth shouting. Our nation today is suffering an increase of mental health issues due to the external and internal battles we face each day when listening to the news. Thank you for using this prompt to say loud and proud that we are not bigger than this issue, and that we need to take care of all we can.

    Thank you so much for reviewing Terry. Yes, it can be applied to the US as well, although my primary thought was for the people of Ukraine. Many layers of relevance. I appreciate your insights.

A poignant write about the attack on Ukraine and how the world has reacted to this invasion. It is as personal as a heart attack and hopefully it will be all over soon, but the aftermath will most certainly mean that Ukraine will fall to the Russian mighty rule, we need to fear the spread, love Dolly x

This 2-4-2, Heart Pains, has the right setup and refers to the horrors of the unwarranted attack by Russia on their neighbor and free republic of Ukraine. Heart attack for sure.

Using only these eight mere required syllables, you have movingly touched on an issue that goes to the hearts of caring people throughout the world!
I'm so glad about the widespread efforts to help.

There is so much hatred and evil in the world. It seems we are doomed to repeat the past because we have not learned from it. We should be standing together and holding up our fellow humans not tearing them down.

    Thank you Mia. A very understanding review. You are exactly right. Man has not learned from the past and its suffering, nor has he learned to control his greed.

War can cause much stress. A task force on war-related stress was convened to develop strategies for prevention and treatment of psychological, psychosocial, and psychosomatic disorders. Stress can cause heart attacks.

Who, having a heart, isn't feeling the anguish of the people of Ukraine right now? How one person can single-handedly create so much trouble for not only the Ukrainians, but the rest of the world as well, is beyond comprehension. Thanks for sharing.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom
