For the last 18 months it feels like all we have seen on The News is a constant conversation about ‘the numbers’ – deaths, cases, vaccine takers, percentages. It’s a lot of numbers.
The other constant is the theme of division. Black/white – sexual orientation – politics – should I or shouldn’t I? Sometimes to the level that even within families agreement can’t be made.
It’s left me wondering who actually are my people? Who can I rely on when the s**t hits the fan? Have the divisions run so deep that unless you have a majority view (whatever that is – how can you possible be moderate on everything – and lets face it, how wise would that be?!) – you’re on your own?
I’m tired of all this division. What happened to conversation, the ability to agree to disagree and taking a stand without being a pariah.
