Greater Than
December 4th, 2012
Off center
And moving further out
Until it is all off balance
No longer stable
Not a quiet scene
Can’t tame this beast
From time to time
One feels the need
To try and work things out
But fate does not yield
Won’t put down her shield
Must deflect our pleas
Now is the time
To bring to light
Our united front
Enforce the good
Denounce all evil
Bring us to a time of peace
Show the world we are stronger
We do not fear and will not flinch
Face the challenge with grace
Our voice our legacy
For words do not wither
As would paper and stone
Upon entrance to the new world
We mustn’t forget the old one
Lest we let history repeat itself
Yet later should this chaos infect the land
We’ll march out with sword and shield
A warm smile and helping hand

$#*£ Resilience
I was going to relax this evening. Tune out, hunker down, look after myself. I need it. I am exhausted. Thoroughly used up. And it's only Wednesday. Not even half way through the week. A week that in the UK, is Mental Health Awareness week. I don't know who decides these things, who gets to co-opt a day, a week, a month, and declare it a thing about a thing. But I do know a lot about mental health. I know a lot about mental health AND I know a lot about working for the UK's National Health Service. And so it was with interest that I clicked play on the below video, earlier today. By the time I finished, I was in tears.
