Gratitude #16

Gratitude #16 Coronavirus can do one. Earlier today, I listened to Boris saying that we could lose loved ones and felt a pang of despair. And yes these are scary times. But we have to say no to fear. Just keep going, wash our hands and be sensible. And then we went out to our CCN meeting and I came back buzzing with the truth of two amazing artists- their journeys and the truths that they have learned to tell with their whole lives. Thankyou @clairescott.9 and @revseventandart xxx
