Can we all take a collective deep breath ?
We are grumpy and snappish because we want somebody to yell at.
We want a target for our grief, but we should be gentle with each other.
Our sadness is so deep and so profound that we forget that most of the modern
population of this planet saw the same horrors as we did. We wept in the
streets of every city on earth.
Was it any less real because I saw it live in North Carolina and others saw
it live in London or Cairo?
It happened in the USA but the whole world was witness and every country will
mourn loved ones lost on our soil.
The whole world wants to share with us and we need to let them.
We are the fortunate ones who get to escape into clay, mother earth herself.
We get to sink our hands into the planet and make beauty.
Take a deep breath, say a prayer and get to work.
Chris Campbell - in North Carolina, USA, North America, The World.
