I have sat
here for days, lost, after witnessing the brutality the police visited upon a
group of peaceful protesters. I have felt grief, pain, sorrow and… anger.
What have
we become here in New Zealand? We are a lost, divided people. Today I saw a
video of the recent protests, but not the anger. It was a group of people
united, in love, compassion, honour. We, were, one, and I remembered, this is what
we are striving for. We cannot become like the others, filled with righteous
anger and hate, I know that’s so easy to do. Remember the convoy and freedom
village for what it was, a glimpse of people coming together, a peaceful
resistance against the lies and hate. There is hope for humans yet. We can
become this again.
These are
dark times indeed, but what will come from the ashes is going to be what we on
the side of kindness are longing so deeply for. A world of peace. Remember, It’s
always darkest before the dawn.
