It's been a weird few weeks...I've been living in a bubble of excitement with my and Elijah s birthdays , joy of visiting friends and family , a 2 night trip away minus kids and the on going exciting demands of work, alongside that there's been the horrific terrorist attacks in Manchester and London. It's been hard to sit in a place of emmense joy and emmense pain knowing families have suffered so deeply seeing schools having to cancel trips because parents are living in fear for their kids and we are all secretly wondering where on earth next . It can feel like we are In a state of flux but you look again and we are hearing stories of amazing heroism ...people risking their own lives to protect others, people reacting instinctively to try and stop the terror , homeless men rushing from their spots in order to help and try and save the lives of others who may have usually just passed them by. And tonight I sit trying to plan , watching DIY SOS from Sheppey just down the road from us really , watching two guys who have chosen to adopt 4 very vulnerable children with incredible complex needs have a house literally built up for them enabling them to not just survive together but thrive...inspiring, truly inspiring.
So amidst the hurt and pain we are seeing in the world there still is sparks if not flames of absolute wonderful humanity. And that's the hope I believe In. The hope that shines in the darkness...may it continue to shine.
