I swear I'll stop posting so much soon, this was just too nice not to share. The timing was so lovely, I'm very happy for both Agam and Bar. I'm not an emotional person but this one is a bit of a tear jerker even for me.

Quick ETA: I'm pretty sure the woman with the red beret walking with Agam is actually Agam's twin sister, to add an extra element of cute.

As much as I love seeing the former hostages happy, and want them to tell their stories when they feel ready, I feel a bit uneasy about publicizing every little detail of their lives. I fear that being treated like celebrities long-term could harm their mental health.
