I have not really said much of my thoughts of late.

Just RT'd a lot of others

But I feel I have something to say now.

These last 4 1/2 years - and the last 12 months especially - have challenged us all

Maybe- just maybe- make us see the value in community and ech other

Perhaps we needed this - to see the very worst in those we just accepted

To see the evil within our society

If so, it is a hard lesson. But one which must be learned

With luck, the good will prevail

I have seen so much good here it gives me hope.

Unity of good is our strength

Together we are stronger

It will not happen overnight - much as I might wish it may

But it can happen

So - though we may despair, hold onto that

A brighter truth awaits if we truly want it.

Hold on, fight hard - cleave to the good

Reject the lies and falsehoods and shout out loud

These are our lands - not theirs.

If we become once more separate countries? - so be it

We can, again collaborate in good faith.

I love you all

And pray you stay safe x
