Yes, of course I expect to make little or no difference. But I do think my death will somehow save one person in my Palestinian family over the next 20 years or so. And that alone is worth the price to me. But there is a prayer, as minuscule as it is, that by showing the only way to avert the world's calamities, the death fast, voluntarily paying the price of our own life so that another, or others may have one, that by doing this, another, others, someday may follow. Thereby taking the chance for a future worth living for my human family from zero to something more than that. Is that worth my life? A million times if I could offer it.
