Come Together

These are Extraordinary Times.

This is extraordinary, from Kuwait. The Muslim call to prayer contains the line Hayya ala al-Salah (come to prayer), imploring people to come to the mosque. Now, because of coronavirus, the muadhin (caller) says al-Salatu fi buyutikum (pray in your homes). Never heard that before pic.twitter.com/gSkzI6HHy6

History remembers the brave. Everything is on fire, and these are the moments where even the most mentally tough will have moments of chaos. That’s when we all have to pull together and move forward collectively.

If you're reading this right now, and are feeling a bit lost or afraid, you're not alone. If you want someone to talk to, or are feeling this is all too much, there are ways and means that we can all support each other going forward.

Remember that kindness still matters. pic.twitter.com/N4dwobDemn

The only way I get through this is to keep talking to other people about it, and encourage people not to forget, whilst they are washing their hands, that brains need attention too. Trauma creates inevitable and inescapable consequences. Limiting time on social media might well be an answer for some of us. I know that will be happening going forward.

In the end, it is only through each other’s kindness and support that anything gets better.
