People In Ukraine Are Here To Tell Us Just What's Going On
If you have been paying much attention to the news and social media lately then you know that Russia just invaded Ukraine. People were scared that something like this was going to happen and overall it is worrisome that we are living through this.
Other countries are trying to find a game plan and act fast. It's said that Europe hasn't gone through anything like this since the Second World War.
Some of the world is watching this unfold on the internet and television, but there are people who are currently living through it in their day-to-day lives. It's hard to imagine what these people are going through, but this post will hopefully put it in perspective.
People are being awoken with bombs and families are trying to figure out how to keep their children safe. It's a very scary time in Ukraine and our thoughts are with them immensely.
We compiled a few posts to explain from Ukraine and the people of Ukraine's perspective of what is exactly going on over there. A lot of us don't live in Ukraine so we don't have any means to understand firsthand what they are going through.
For us to best support them, we have to understand how terrible this situation really is.
1. It's so hard to even think about what they are going through.

After seeing some of these photos, tweets, and messages it really puts things into perspective. This is a war that none of the people wanted, but now they have to suffer through.
This situation is terrifying for anyone apart of it and we can't imagine how people in Ukraine are feeling. We stand with Ukraine.
Stop the war.
