I would hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo, and if an echo sounded, no matter how faintly, I would send other words to tell, to march, to fight, to create a sense of hunger for life that gnaws in us all.
~Richard Wright, American Hunger, 1977

12 May is ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia International Awareness Day. Dedicated to all those who live in pain, physical and mental.
I care for someone who suffers chronic pain. I see how debilitating it can be and how it saps the very essence of a person. I send my heartfelt wishes to all who suffer. 💙
Viola flowers taken at Melbourne Botanical Gardens.
Let's hope there is a better outcome from the peace talks so all these unnecessary sufferings and destructions will end as soon as possible.
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves... it is always appreciated..

If this happens, we risk denying present and future generations the right to a healthy and sustainable planet – the whole of humanity stands to lose.”

... as climate change is becoming more and more evident with more frequent extreme weather events such as heat waves, thunderstorms, drought and flooding - it is high time for more serious efforts!
When you feel weak,
when you need a shoulder to lean on,
a hug to warm you up,
I will be here.
I will be here to remind you of your worth,
to tell you how beautiful life is when you believe in yourself,
when you don't need confirmation from anyone.
I'll be here to help you spread your wings
and fly high, my little butterfly.
I love you, Athena...

Staying below 1.5 degrees is the only chance we have of avoiding these tipping points and stabilising our world again.

Good luck for COP 26 beginning in Glasgow tomorrow
and that it will have better results than just more 'hot air'
and the further formulation of noble goals that no one is seriously trying to achieve ...
Earth needs tangible actions at all levels of human existence!
