Democracy Now  interview with Tariq Ali    Manchester Bombing is part of viscous cycle, likely blowback from on going war on terror.

Today,  NYT, Google News:   "in fight against the Islamic  state US airstrikes have killed hundreds and possibly thousands of civilians"    …..hundreds and "possibly thousands?"  we don't know?

i read somewhere that the bomber watched his friend killed.

the pain of one multiplies.

    Trees represent so many things .. the seasons … family … life just to name a few. For what is happening in this country and elsewhere.. I have feelings of deep sorrow .. no real words. Your tree is beautiful with its deep roots searching / reaching for strength.

    It is hard to keep all the ugly in perspective. Our little lives sustaining so much information that assaults are miracles. Amidst the chaos and cruelty when one woman sits stitching, the whole world is made more peaceful.

    i think there IS no perspective for any of it
    just that it’s the time we are living in, and so, the
    time we must find our way in
