Exercising My Right . . . Not To

At first I thought I was not writing because of busyness.  The week between Christmas and New Year’s I had script contest deadlines followed by an out of town weekend with my husband to celebrate our 15th Anniversary.  Then came post-holiday cleaning and all that necessary work at the beginning of a new year.

Then I thought I was not writing because I was angry. 

Bid Thou Our Sad Divisions Cease – Hope

O come, Desire of nations, bind
in one the hearts of all mankind;
bid thou our sad divisions cease,
and be thyself our King of Peace.

Latin, twelfth century; trans. John Mason Neale

 

 It’s Christmas Eve and I am struggling.
