Smugness,
exceptionalism, complacency, hubris… have so much to answer for, especially at
a momentous moment such as this.
For
months, we have been in a bubble, consumed, mesmerized by two obscenely rich and powerful
people vying to rule over us, even if from afar. Meanwhile, the planet spirals
out of control.
A
swig of humility, an ounce of contemplation, a taking of stock, a pause…
would go a long way.
Then,
let’s get active and set about the challenges we face together, building
bridges, restoring mutual trust, moving
ourselves, our community, our world forward with good humour and oodles of resilience.
