The deeper the crisis, the better we get.
The way people use money as a shield and a weapon, a wedge, those times are over. Mostly.
OMG! spending it all now has consequences!
It hurts but I like it. Self reliant people now turn to each other, look each other in the eye, reach out to give or receive. They help each other find jobs and housing. They leave treats under a throw pillow, $20 for struggling friends, and find homes for a dog in need. HUMANITY in all caps.
There are murmers, and wonders about how it will end: and people lending an arm to lean on, grateful it isn't them but knowing it easily could be.
Reach for me, let me grab hold and lift you up. I try not to look away.
Where do you put that, when love is so dense that you are unable to accept it?
