I might not agree with everything about the song, but I certainly believe in the power of guitars over guns. I’d rather see meaningful music influence our world than military force any day.

Watching #homealone as part of our Christmas tradition.
Both my foster children wanted to tell me that this was a 'good bit.'

True strength often lies not in dull acceptance, but in quiet resistance, not in power but in courage, not in having all the answers but in asking the right questions.

I believe there are compassionate reasons both to support the assisted dying bill and to oppose it.
I believe that given more time, we can find more common ground and some better ways to protect the vulnerable.

It's fascinating that the @guardian made this their headline news story.

The 1990s are enjoying a revival—from the return of baggy jeans and bucket hats to the reunion of Oasis, and, perhaps most significantly, a Labour government in power once again.
What can Tony Blair teach us about leadership today?

Those who have experienced trauma and loss are often the most compassionate and generous people I have ever met.
It's another reason welcoming refugees is good for our society .
Those that oppose welcoming refugees are often not just miserly towards immigrants they are miserly to everyone.

1,000 days since Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine.
Ukraine fires U.S.-made long-range missiles into Russia, and
Putin approves an update to Russia’s nuclear doctrine, lowering the threshold at which it would consider a nuclear strike.
We pray for peace.

It sickens me that from the moment of the attack, people have been using the tragedy to score political points.
