    I’m truly moved by Italians singing through their quarantine. So beautiful it’s made me shed happy tears, laughing with relief.

    This is not to undermine the grief or concern that many of us are feeling, which is warranted. Just honouring the triumph of the human spirit over oppression. Whether that oppression is from government, disease, or any other source.

    This is a spirited one (a montage) :

    https://www.facebook.com/italia.it/v...2581919082140/

    And the first part of this is one of the first I found :

    People across Italy have been singing from their balconies in an effort to keep up morale as the country faces the worst coronavirus outbreak outside China. Italy’s 60 million citizens were placed under lockdown to halt the spread of a virus that has so far claimed over 1,000 lives in the country



    Whether intended or not, it’s as if they are holding space for love within the collective.

    Feeling love for the Italians right now - also great respect for all the medical professionals around the world who are under pressure from both authorities and populations.

    Wishing strength to all

    Millions of people leaned out of their windows or stepped out onto the streets tonight in the UK, to applaud and cheer for the NHS (National Health Service) workers.

    It was pretty loud on my street. So much love

    I'm not crying again. Just been chopping onions. Honestly.

    Millions of Britons step out to clap for NHS staff on coronavirus frontlines :

    I've just been told that "Russian ships are parked off the Isle of Wight"

    Does anyone know more about this ?

    Talking of the eye of the storm.

    ‘Eye Of The Storm’ Captured In Incredible Photos Of Full Moon After Storm Ciara

    A collection of photos has gone viral after it revealed a unique moment in Nature during the potent Atlantic storm, Storm Ciara, which is considered to be ‘Britain Storm of the Century’ by some.

    The storm particularly affected the UK and Ireland, and then went on to thrash the north coast of mainland Europe. As Storm Sabine, as it is known in some parts of Europe, kept wreaking chaos in the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, and Germany, a woman managed to capture the “perfect eye of the storm”.

    Just moments after it passed past her house, Sarah Hodges, from Bolton, snapped a cloud formation huddled around a full moon, that resembled a huge eye that observes the Earth.

    Sarah took the snaps on the 11th of February from her window, but she didn’t imagine that she would capture an incredibly valuable one that will fascinate the rest of the world.

    Brace yourselves, no fear.

    What is the greatest hope for humanity?
    Unconditional love, I always answer.
    An endless and positive dialogue between our conscience of all, the creativity of the freedom of our free spirit and the courage that lies in our hope that being human is truly a gift,
    a kind of art of a universal syllogism that confines us all in the most beautiful particle of existence, life.
    Some would say in those moments,
    Anka don't be, such an Anka today,
      but I would say in the most positive way possible that there is hope.

    So let's all embrace without fear!
    And all this to be just human.

    Happy Birthday Aragorn! For those of you who don't know he works more than the average person to keep this forum running smoothly.

    Not a lot I can do in the way of gifts so for the time being I'm temporarily changing my avatar as a nod to Aragorn. So happy birthday and much love!
