It’s well worth taking 2 minutes to read this thread. The biggest thing I learned from a decade working in probation is that helping people change their lives needs to be driven by endless wells of empathy & patience. This is a great example.

After my talk
about Covid:
the look of loss
in a man’s face
as he tells me of
a weakness
in every part of his body.
The look of loss
in a woman’s face
as she tells me of
a heart that
suddenly pumps
at a rate
that leaves her
weak and breathless.

@dc_litchfield Thank you for the excellent class yesterday, David, I learnt loads. I checked and ET only goes for £15 on eBay so he's staying with me until he builds* his own interstellar communications system.
