Thought for today:

‘Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light;
I have loved the stars too truly to be fearful of the night.’

— Sarah Williams

This has long been a favourite of mine.

When I sat down this morning to fit a quote to how I feel, this sprang to mind.

At first I wondered if it was just because it is a favourite.

And then I realised that the news is about a new national lockdown in the UK.

And the US Covid-19 death toll was 971 souls yesterday.

And a certain someone’s son dismisses the death rate as ‘almost nothing’.

I realise we have our own fearful night in the world.

We need to believe we will rise in perfect light one day.

I’ll settle for the hope we will.
