“Optimism is like a muscle.” Eli Sharabi was held hostage by Hamas for 491 Days. Starved and tortured he survived on optimism. Imagine finding gratitude in the worst possible circumstances one can face. We’re grateful he told his story in Westport, CT 💙
Please read his incredibly compelling book, Hostage.
