CHILDREN

The story is of a father’s journey through despair, prayer, faint hope, reunion, and finally universal resolve. It is about Ukrainian children taken by force, but it also speaks for all children everywhere who are victims of war and injustice.

A father returns home after a long day’s work. He is tired, but the thought of hearing his children’s laughter at the door gives him strength. When he opens the door, however, the house is empty. His wife sits in despair, unable to explain except through tears: soldiers have come, and the children are gone. No warning. No farewell.

At first, the father refuses to believe it. He calls out their names, searching every corner of the house, trembling with fear. The silence is unbearable. In his grief he turns to prayer, demanding that God return his children. He begs, he cries, he shouts into the void. But no answer comes—only the cruel fact that the children are not coming home.

Days turn into months. The father grows weaker, his spirit crushed. Each night he looks out the window, hoping against hope that his children might walk back to him. He imagines their voices, their faces, their longing for their mother. The absence gnaws at his soul.

And then, one day, after a year of suffering, the miracle happens. He comes home and finds his children waiting. They run into his arms, alive, though changed by the ordeal. They have been through attempts to re-shape them, to erase their identity, but the love between parent and child is stronger.

The father’s relief transforms into a vow: that no child should ever again be torn from their family. His story is not only personal, but universal. It is the cry of every parent whose children have been taken by war, injustice, or cruelty. And so his voice becomes a message for all: protect the children, for they are the future of the world.
