it is good not to be at the centre of a storm

I sit helplessly watching the horror which is China' s earthquake unfold on the TV screen. A donation to the Red Cross appeal doesn't seem enough but it is all I can do...

...then I watch the brutality of some Rangers' fans humiliating us all and and am shocked...

...I am saddened by the news of Tommy Burns' death. I met him only once and it is true he was a gentleman...

then I read the Council Leader's interview in today's evening paper which makes me smile...

today is a day for reacting to other people's stories...sometimes it is good not to be at the centre of a storm of activity but, instead, to have peace and time to reflect
