It is Jan 2, 2022. The second day of a new year. Another “new” year but somehow it looks suspiciously like last year. The second day after two full years of Covid, political, social, economic, planetary, … well, shall we just say chaos? No, I think polarity bests chaos.

Some journeys are such that novels and movies are made to chronicle the triumph. Most people will never know our journeys nor the courage and heart required. The strength required is not diminished by those in novels or displayed on the cinema. Those making the invisible journeys…..
Sometimes the simplicity of of small things leaves me breathless. That I would be graced to see beauty in something so easily unnoticed leaves me in awe. It reminds me of you Mama. No need for the dazzling display of sunrise or heroic…..
