Today, in the town squares of all great cities
around this beautiful globe,
we will, by common consent, remove divisive flags
hung by history’s tainted shreds of angry pride;
folding them away like old aunty’s table cloths.
.
And see draped instead, from mountain heights,
a more fantastic sight; our real heritage.
Reflective of all earth’s passion and intensity
absorbing in amazement all our pain,
this is our rainbow – and the music of a shared song.

Visualisation works for me. The hardest part seems to be knowing what we want.

yes agreed. And why doesn’t it get any easier the older we get? I thought the saying was wisdom comes with age?

very tiring, but I am optimistic. It’s time to decide where to put the energy.
