After the bleak blackness of Monday I had a rush of courage yesterday beginning with saying hello to H and then the firing off of emails in the afternoon asking to be recognised and ‘hired’. Then I sank. We diffident beings struggle to sustain audacity, it comes in bursts then we are spent and more than a little embarrassed by it.
These are parallel times. Such potential for joy for success and the opening of life and at the same time an awareness of others’ misery, fear, pain and despair. Can there really be a war? What of the brilliance of our diplomats, can they not stop it? Have we learnt nothing? Save us. Save them.
