What inspired me about this was the Israeli flag. The Israeli star in the middle is surrounded by a heart that says “I left my heart in Israel,” meaning that Israel is so important to me that I left all of my heart in it.

The yellow ribbons are yellow just like the empty chair for the hostages, so the ribbons are for remembering the hostages that are still in Gaza. What inspired me about this was the Israeli flag.
