I found an old journal of mine from 20 years ago and was interested to note in January 2006 that:

1. we'd just had the hottest December on record in Sydney #Heatwave

2. the USA had revealed its underbelly with its response to the #NewOrleansHurricane

3. increasing #terrorism was hanging darkly over us (John Howard's new terrorism laws had just come in)

4. people were clutching at their mobile phones to feel loved and needed

5. and we'd just lost #TheAshes 2005-06.

When people say things started to go downhill with #Covid, perhaps they forget that the world is changing all the time, and sometimes for the better.

I felt low and depressed at the state of the world 20 years ago, and yet I was cocooned compared to now. Yet we cope and manage and go on and find new ways to bring change for good.
