Not sure what to say..
Haven’t said much in the last few days I know. I could tell you about the daily work, how I’m mixing the tracks for the single and getting ready to jet off to Belgium on Friday, but it all sounds so trivial at the moment.I guess there is a lot of dialogue before war and then one sits numbly observing. The money we raise from the single will be sent to help a few folks out there so I guess that’s tangible. Been thinking about the scars. Imagine being the person that knows they pressed the button or trigger that killed someone from their own side, living with that; I know friends that have loved ones out there fighting, they must be going through hell every day, especially as things intensify now. In all honesty, I’m not a pacifist. I would have lived with whatever trauma I might have sustained in putting a bullet through Hussein’s body. He long passed my threshold of grace, and to save all this and the suffering he has granted to millions. But weren’t there other ways of doing this? I think there were, and many others much wiser than I thought so too. The hope now is for swift conclusions to the fighting and then justice, then peace. It’s hard to talk children through this. They ask questions that I don’t know how to answer, and thank God they do, because they remind us of how the world should be.
