From close, and from afar, each day I have seen astonishing people achieving astonishing things. They are not known, outside their circles. But within those venn circles, they are applauded and loved.
For some, getting from day to day is the impressive achievement. For others, it involved dramatic life, and location, changes.
For many, it has been contending, conquering the restrictions, isolation and achieving the self-reliance within the lock down.
Some has been observance via social media, some face to face, but each with their own approach to beat each hurdle.
There have been health problems, scares, challenges and threats. there has been new lives, and the end of lives.
But each have been who they are, and continue, and claim the high ground. And each has shown why they are the loved centre of their circles.
Those I hold most dear have faced the stress of the past 4 months and are there, and standing, and still looking to the future. Change, different choices, passing over disappointment; rising above them all.
Each who I hold dear, and close, and in my heart, are those who keep me up, and moving forward, and wanting more.
Those who know me know who I mean, because it is all of you.
I am the sum of the people I know, and the huge diversity of understanding, and empathy, and joy, and laughter, and love.
Each day I take so much from those I know, and hope that I will be able to return the compliment one day.
until then I fill my heart, and my soul, and my life, with all that these wonderful people give generously, and freely.
I am blessed by you all.
