Imagine being confined like this, millions around the world are. None of the comforts we have, and what's worse, no food or chance of medical help.

The picture was taken four years ago but is illustrative of the way people will have to endure lockdown.

And no food. In addition, if they go outside without good reason (to try to buy food or medicines) they stand a good chance of being beaten with bamboo canes by the police.

This photo captures the essence of the soul; it is indeed worth its thousand words.

Such an image!
A clear imperative to carefully - with all intents of that word - to refocus so many of our attitudes and perspectives.

Thank you, Graham !

We can only hope that this current "situation" makes the world a more compassionate place rather than more self-centred. The richer countries can help the poorer ones. We are all one family.
