on loving the ‘enemy’ - reminded me of this post, worth a read: https://substack.com/home/post/p-172087759 . thank you for the uncomfortable reminder Grace (uncomfortable bc there are people it is much easier to vilify than love, but this is part of the work)
Great piece, Grace, and an important challenge. Thank you. Reminds me of a meme I saw recently that feels quite apposite -
Jesus: 'Love your neighbour as yourself.'
Member of the crowd: 'Who is my neighbour?'
Jesus: 'It's whoever you were hoping I wouldn't say.'
Exactly! It's annoying but true :)
Important, challenging reminder. Thank you.
Thanks Liz. I’m feeling a bit battered by the weeks events. X
Grace , I continue to value your writing ,and dare I say Friendship , hugely.
Along side this I plan to contribute a bit.
Not by signing a regular subscription . This is a one off , I ll send. Sox
