    A new fight and a very different war. We have had to learn the discipline of distance and, in that, come to better value the closeness that has been taken from us. A few thoughts from a piece I scribbled a few days ago.

    "The Past tells us that the mind and body will only take so much of [this] . There needs to be breathing space and time out."

    There is other important learning from our Past; that being too close to all of this for too long will eat you up. A new fight and a very different war. Read my latest here.

    I’d wanted to sleep on this Barney as I found it deeply moving & emotional. Such a quality piece of writing here by ⁦⁩ that should resonate “humanity”: WAKE-LIKE: THE SILENT LINE WAITING TO PAY RESPECTS - By Brian Rowan - Eamonn Mallie

    Again learning from our past we need to personalise the memory of those who may not have died of the virus but because of it. Many lives were cut short here by other means than bomb and bullet & their loved ones often feel forgotten. There should be no "hierarchy" of victims...

    Turning numbers to names & finding breathing spaces where we are; real wisdom here 💛

    I just used the term previously used. “That we are, as far as is humanly possible, able to respect their final wishes, and in the interim if we need to have this resting facility, that it will be a place that is secure and dignified." ~ Naomi Long

    Good piece. I see Doug Beattie termed the Kinnegar mortuary a ‘resting facility’. That’s some euphemism.

    Your photo reminded me a bit of the photos we see of tired and injured troops waiting in lines on a French beach to be rescued by boats of all sizes and types. Yet another past war! Those wars ended - so will this one

    "We should learn from that conflict past and do it properly; turn the numbers into names; have something permanent as a reminder and a memorial to these days of death." We should Brian and hopefully we will.
