🌹 Happy 81, Daw Suu 🌹

“ I’ve found more warmth, more wholehearted love, more tenderness, more courage, and more caring concern among my people, as we hope together, we suffer together and struggle together, than anywhere else in the world ” Aung San Suu Kyi Letter from Burma (1997)

It was after six, late in the evening. I looked up at the sky and noticed a wisp of cloud drifting above. The sun had set, and the moon was already out, mingling with a ghostly wisp of cloud and slipping behind it. I walked wearily back home, feeling depressed, hopeless, and confused. As I walked, I couldn’t shake the weight of my thoughts. I had to make a change in my life. I had to leave this bloody country. There was no future here. This place could end up like Syria or any number of failed states. I was down, down to the bottom of the deepest ocean. I wanted a drink.
