Lockdown Thought — Day 46 now at Level 3

Happy Mother's Day!

We are in a liminal time, a time between the old and what was, and the new that must come. It is a time requiring great trust in the essential goodness and potential of the human spirit. We can move forward into a healthier and happier existence; we are capable and gifted. And we have mothers who have shown us the way at other times of our lives.

Another two cases yesterday — but in known clusters
and we're seeing our efforts bearing fruit
Love us into patience
Laugh us into good humour
Forgive us into fresh starts
Nourish us into resolve
Hug us into tenderness
Surprise us into stepping up
And accompany us on this journey
Mothering God

A laugh and a warm moment:
